SECTIONSAVOR HEADER! iT!

During the Social Hour before dinner, guests are invited to to walk the grounds, visit the horses and goats, and notice the occasional free range chickens roaming the farm. At every station along the way, staff are on hand to explain the agricultural methods being implemented and to answer questions. For example, egg-producing chickens at Calleva live in portable units that move around the fields which helps create a healthier ecosystem by dispersing nutrients in the soil and eliminating the need for insecticides. Guests can also join a hayride of the entire property, which includes everything from an equestrian training area to a cutting mill. Once the tractor pulls back in, opt for a garden tour. It is wonderful to see the array of produce being grown on site, everything from tomatoes and potatoes to raspberries and pears. In fact, you may spot one of the chefs out cutting mint to be used for that evening’s meal.
