Our farm is located just outside of London, with easy access to the 401 (15 minutes). We are full time farmers - having said that you need to know that we have animals on our farm and there are the usual smells and early morning noises that can accompany that from time to time -our animals get to have breakfast before we do! We enjoy travelling and look forward to hosting fellow travellers! We prefer no pets but that can be discussed on a per situation basis. Absolutely no access to our farm buildings- no exceptions please. We love to talk about them though and Ag Education is a big thing with us! Suggested Local Attractions: Fanshawe or Wildwood cycling/hiking trails, Appleland, several golf courses, lots of family friendly activities in London (20 minute drive) Close to Western University and Fanshawe College.

Full Time Farmers who love to travel! Details: We are parents of five daughters and grandparents of 10 who farm full time outside of London, Ontario. Our passions are road cycling, ukulele playing, sewing, reading and traveling in our 25 foot Jayco Melbourne Prestige. Home Town: Thorndale, Ontario is a small farming community about 10 minutes from the London Airport and 25 minutes from downtown London. We are 15 minutes off the 401, 40 minutes from some of the best beaches in Canada and there are lots of hiking and cycling trails that as hosts we can direct you to! Favorite Boondocking Locations: Ontario has been our BW and HH destinations so far! We enjoy quiet country escapes where we can cycle, read, paddleboard and chat with other hosts.

Very grateful for last minute overnight space after an other Boondocking host didn’t reply to our request for 3 days. Great host and communication. Only slight worry was parking on muddy grass end October, bit stressed about being able to drive away without getting stuck - but we managed! Recommend, we will return when in the area!

We had a great stay. We found much in common with the hosts and even discovered we were both biking on RAGBRAI a few weeks before. Quiet peaceful night stay.

The communication from the beginning was excellent. Connie and Mike have a wonderful place for an overnight or two. It is easy access from the highway. Mike provided us with firewood for a campfire and Connie came with some tastes treats. We had great conversation about there wonderful farm. We enjoyed our stay and we will be sure to return.
