Nestled in a Tranquil Rural Setting…
The Farm is the heart of the Moonlit Acres Retreat experience. Our property is located on rural, picturesque acreage in Carroll County, MD, and is situated among the best nature has to offer. Experience wildlife, gardening, hiking, and outdoor bonfires; relax and dine with other guests, and enjoy game nights and wellness workshops. The main areas of the Farm include The Barn, which will house our gym and be our primary space for instructors to host open inclusive workshops (renovations are underway and will be completed soon – we can’t wait for you to see it!); our spacious yet cozy farmhouse kitchen for cooking workshops and a farm-to-table dining experience; and our garden where we’ll host our outdoor inclusive workshops.
- Workshops are $30.00 an hour with our average workshop fee at $90.00. This rate includes cost of equipment/activity fee, instructor fees, and moonlit acres staff. Workshops are usually 2-3 hours long. Some special events may include additional fees, to cover additional costs, but will be advertised in advance on our event sign-up page.
Some special events may have an add on fee (event tickets, cost of food, etc).
We are always searching for qualified, enthusiastic volunteers to help with all of our programs and activities. If you’re interested in a rewarding experience helping others in your community, please CLICK HERE to contact us today!
