Accommodation during Courses and Workshops
at Solomon Brook Farm
Food During Workshops
Meal plans are provided for residential workshops only. For non residential workshops, kitchen facilities are available to store and prepare food and there are grocery stores in the nearby area. Preparing meals together is often a wonderful part of any workshop experience!
There are also a number of restaurants that we often go to during workshop events.
Solomon Brook Farm has a 1 acre organic market garden, so if you would like to purchase fresh seasonal vegetables grown right here at the farm, please let us know. In order to guarantee availability and to allow us to harvest in an efficient and timely manner, please let us know at least two weeks ahead of your stay, if possible. We can then let you know what will most likely be available when you are here and for what prices.
We also get our eggs from a neighbor who has free run happy chickens! With luck we can also supply eggs from her chickens for those who would like to purchase eggs.
