Rifton Farm Hidden Forest: Our premier glamping site, closer to our farm and before our wild camping sites within the Forest, we offer a window into both nature and into farming of a more natural nature. Silvan Culture is the practice of farming under the forest canopy. It is difficult to describe how the farm animals share the same untamed environment as our resident wild animals do, and unusual to imagine farming within an uncultivated space, as it is to describe this unique glamping experience among our forest farm. Yet within a wild forest area filled with the sounds and the scents and character of a wilderness mixed with our farm animalsThis year our farm has moved forward with the addition of several rabbits, 25 pigs, over 20 chickens and a large ex-farm Turkey that has been calling in wild female turkeys. The activity is an element of magic previously unknown on our farm, and here for you to enjoy along with the other attractions nearby, and on our property.
