Pollinators

Our team carefully nurtures a diverse range of flowers and plants that attract beneficial pollinators. These natural helpers not only contribute to the flourishing of our farm-to-table produce but also enhance the serene landscape.

Farm Fresh Eggs

Our hens roam freely on our farm, producing eggs rich in flavor and nutrients. Our chefs use these fresh eggs in a variety of dishes at both of our restaurants, ensuring that every meal reflects our commitment to quality and sustainability.

Farm Friends

Goodstone Inn's farm is a lively home to a delightful array of animals. Greyson the Llama, along with our friendly goats, sheep, donkeys, and cattle, roam the picturesque pastures, adding charm and life to the countryside setting. Keeping watch over the barn is Rambo, our beloved barn cat.

Local Honey

Goodstone Inn proudly maintains 13 beehives on our property, carefully tended by a professional beekeeper, Armondo Olloco. The honey harvested from these hives is not only a testament to our dedication to sustainability but also a key ingredient in our farm-to-table dining experience.

Cut Flowers

Our farm’s cut flower beds provide an array of fresh florals that bring natural beauty to every corner of our property. These blooms are carefully arranged to enhance our dining spaces. We also love to surprise our overnight guests with vibrant floral arrangements, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that brightens their stay.

Goodstone Cattle

Roaming freely across most of our 265-acre property, our cattle are carefully moved from pasture to pasture to ensure they enjoy the best grazing conditions. While they aren’t used for meat in our dining services, their presence adds to the pastoral charm of Goodstone.

The Goodstone Farm Animals

At Goodstone, we consider all our animals as beloved members of our community. Our vast rolling pastures are home to a variety of animals, including Black Angus Cattle, Icelandic Sheep, Suffolk Sheep, flocks of hens, and even a few barn cats! Though we don't have horses on-site, you may spot a horse rider galloping and jumping through the fields.

Our most famous animal is Greyson, the llama. While Greyson may not be the cuddly type, he loves to pose for photos. If you happen to run into Sarah, the friendly donkey, she may even come up to say hello. Our two goats, Duke and Daisy, are brother and sister and spend lots of time together.

We also have a range of wildlife living on our property, such as foxes, squirrels, woodchucks, deer, badgers, eastern box turtles, snapping turtles, possums, raccoons, groundhogs, minks, weasels, and coyotes.

While you're here, we encourage you to spend time around these amazing creatures, but please remember that they are wildlife and should not be disturbed.
