Cash crop farm with beautiful sunsets Details: We are a working cash crop farm of about 1000 acres producing corn, soya, wheat, and hay Our recently built home is on the hillside with a newly planted permaculture “food forest” and a man made pond. We love to travel in our Lance slide in, whenever the farm schedule permits. We spent eight winters in SouthTexas in a fifth wheel, but have given that up. We can’t bear being away from the grandkids that long. Home Town: St Bernard de Lacolle is well situated for visiting the region around Montreal, Quebec; or Northeast NY state and Vermont. It sits right on the Canada/US border where Rte 15 and I87 meet at the border. We are 3 km off Rte 15. Parc Safari is just up the road, and there are many orchards, vineyards, and golf clubs in the immediate area. Favorite Boondocking Locations: Beaches in South Texas Cape Breton Island, NS Newfoundland Any quiet spot in a woods or by water Skills or Expertise to Share: Jack of all trades. Being farmers we have lots of stories and experiences just from that part of our lives. Add to that eight years of driving to Texas, several trips across Canada, and our previous careers; there is always something to talk about, and a story to tell. We love to listen, too!

Beautiful large farm property with a walking trail though a wooded area. 170GlassHill were very welcoming and offered a beautiful spot for my van near the pond where you can watch the sun set. Very nice people even if we only got to chat for a bit. In the morning I was able to enjoy a walk in the woods with Shadow before leaving. And thank-you so much for the fresh eggs...delicious!
