The year-round farm offers tours and has vegetable gardens, fruit trees, berry patches, roof-top conservatory, chickens, beehives, bike station, & more. Level 2 EV charger available. **Shared “airwaves” with the owners’ family, as the apartment is separated from the house by a non-noise cancelling partition. You will hear each other; host and guests agree to comply with quiet hours and be mindful of noise levels at all times. If the guest experiences any concerns, there are instructions in the onsite house manual to address issues promptly directly with the owners.

This apartment is in a custom home situated on a beautiful 1.65 acre urban farmstead and is separated from the main house by sliding opaque glass wall panels. The partition locks on both sides for the security of both the guests and owners but is not noise-reducing. The upper loft/recreation room has a privacy curtain but is open to the main house. ** Guests should expect sounds from the house, farm, and its many residents including a family of six, gardeners, beekeepers, chickens, 2 hypo-allergenic dogs, and 1 outdoor cat. Likewise, the owners expect to hear sounds from guests practicing the piano or enjoying a fun game of ping pong. Quiet hours are 10pm-7am. A white noise machine and ear plugs are provided for your comfort and convenience. In addition, the living room is equipped with a high-end futon and blackout curtains and can be closed off from the main apartment to minimize noise. Still, if you prefer a quieter stay, the host will be happy to accommodate you at another In Bloom Rentals property.

The owners greatly value earth-friendly products and practices. From the VOC-free paint, to the luxurious wool carpet, to the bamboo toilet tissue, their commitment to people and planet is abundantly evident. They are intentional about sustainable and organic farming methods, and their produce is shared throughout the community. They were supplying fresh produce to local farm-to-table restaurants and are actively seeking new partners to do so again.

Coming soon: Garden tours! **100% of proceeds from bookings and tours benefit the farm's non-profit gardening education program** Ask your host about adding seasonal U-pick veggies and berries option.

The owners are also adventurers and love to stay active! There is a bike station on the property with a pump and more. Feel free to bring your bikes! Brown County has some great "mountain" biking trails, and Wapehani trail on Bloomington's near west side is a short drive away. Plus, there is a small basketball court and pickleball court (requires prior consent from owners).a
