Seed & Spoon occupies a unique space – situated in the less-travelled and pristine Northwest corner
– it is at once an organic working farm and a place where a lucky few can come for weekend and
mid-week stays in charming accommodations. Beginning May and continuing through the end of
October, Tracy and her team welcome up to ten guests (five parties of two) for farm stays. Seed &
Spoon is all about the people who want to really share their deep knowledge of food and farming, a
place where the food they grow is transformed by chef and guests alike into meals that are delicious
and fill the soul, and where friendships are made and sustained, because there just isn’t anything
else quite like it. Guests participate in activities based on a specific theme such as discovering wild
edibles, creating a kitchen garden, homesteading, or other activities that naturally take place on a
farm at any given time.

Also known as Mosley House-Farm, this colonial mansion, constructed in 1763, was renovated in the 1920s. Up until 1939, the property was used as a farm and known as Blackberry River Farm, after which it was transformed into an Inn. In 1971 the Inn was sold to a local corporation, which modernized the property. In 1993, an investor from New York bought the Inn. Today Blackberry River Inn is operated as a bed and breakfast.

A replica of the Liberty Bell hangs in the niche below the intersection of the archways. The monument is topped with a stone design that appears to resemble an eternal flame.
