Other things to note
*WIFI: While Forest Garden is meant as a getaway in a rural settings, we do provide satellite-based internet service with speeds that allow for most of the connectivity one needs. This includes the ability to send/receive email; VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol); ZOOMing etc. The one limitation is streaming of movies; live events, especially in HD (High Definition). These efforts end up buffering resulting in interruptions and make the experience not worth the effort. But I emphasize that most all other levels of connectivity are fine.
Unlike hard wired optical high speed internet, satellite service can be temporarily interrupted by inclement weather.
If you experience internet issues, please let the host know ASAP.
