My couch is located on an 8 acre farm nestled in the gently sloping hills between Ashland and Talent, Oregon. The sunrise here is not to be missed! Close to town, it's a 10 minute drive to downtown Ashland, Lithia Park and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Visiting city folk enjoy life on the farm, learning about animal husbandry, land restoration, goat milking and cheese making. This spring we have Black Angus cows calving in the field, and it's kidding season for our Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats. Heritage breed turkeys and chickens are soon to arrive. In spring, summer, and fall we are avid rafters and whitewater kayakers happy to share a day with adventurers who come to stay or point you in the right direction for a day on the river without us. You can also enjoy world class mountain biking on nearby trails.

Conversation, connection and friendship. Happy to help with household, farm and garden chores.
