Strolling Nature Around The Farm

Redleaf Farm is surrounded with raw natural beauty. We went for a walk down the creek and imagined how refreshing it would be to plunge in or kayak during the warmer months. Only a few minutes walk from there, we found a waterfall with its serene and peaceful setting. A perfect place to unwind and appreciate nature to its fullest.

Sam, took us for a farm tour and let us experience what it's like to do the farm rounds, like a real farmer! Feeding the livestock including highland cattle, sheep, pigs, hens, goose was so therapeutic.
