I'm Kari, I live in the beautiful (and fertile!) Appalachian mountains just outside of Asheville, North Carolina. My husband Seth, son Finn and I have stayed and worked on farms here and there and hope to operate a farmstay one day. Whenever we go on vacation, we do lots of googling, looking for a farm we can stay on, instead of a sterile hotel (the eggs just are not good), this is what led me to develop sleepinthehay.com. It's my way to connect folks that enjoy the simple elegance and deep satisfaction derived from an authentic rural life, to family farms.
Sleepinthehay.com is a web directory of accommodations available on working family farms throughout the United States. Some offer room & board in the main house, some have cabins and some may even let you literally "sleep in the hay" or camp on the premises. What they all have in common is a connection to our agricultural roots that more and more people are drawn to these days. Providing our children with a farm experience allows them to know where their food comes from and is essential to growing new farmers. Family farms weave the fabric our communities and of course, grow our food. To the good life!
