Are you looking for ways to connect with nature and enhance your overall well-being? Look no further than Topsy Farms' Connect to the Land program! Topsy Farms is a family-run farm located on Amherst Island, Ontario, Canada, that offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the natural world and experience farm life.

At Topsy Farms, the Connect to the Land program aims to enhance human connection with the land and community by providing space and programs for people of all ages and backgrounds to have deeply engaging experiences with the natural world. The program's mission is to cultivate an awareness of the benefits of being in nature and to develop partnerships with local individuals, communities, and organizations to generate appreciation for living closer to the land through immersive educational experiences.

One of the ways that Topsy Farms is achieving this mission is by reforesting and rewilding the farm’s pasture edges to create wildlife corridors. These corridors serve as natural pathways for animals and promote biodiversity in the ecosystem. Topsy Farms also offers free and subsidized workshops, events, and on-farm experiences, making it accessible to all visitors.

Visitors to Topsy Farms can enjoy the natural beauty of the forest trails, Skipping Stone beach, and kid's play space. There is no admission fee to visit, making it an affordable and family-friendly destination. The farm is a place where children can have unstructured adventure time, and grownups can rediscover their inner child.

Topsy Farms uses a percentage of the proceeds from product sales, such as shirts, yarn, and blankets, to keep the farm's forest trails open, the Skipping Stone beach accessible, and the kid's play space maintained. The farm's commitment to preserving the land as a farm is a crucial one, given that Canada is losing farmland every day.

Farms are ecological preserves and are being subdivided and sold, making it more challenging to appreciate the benefits of living closer to the land. Topsy Farms' Connect to the Land program aims to change that by welcoming families to hang out without a scheduled agenda, get dirty, and leave happy.

The Topsy Farms team is filled with gratitude for their visitors and the support they receive. They believe that their farm is too special to hoard to themselves and that sharing this incredible place with beautiful souls is why they are working so hard. The farm's authenticity speaks for itself and is why people continue to come.

Topsy Farms' Connect to the Land program offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature, experience farm life, and enhance your overall well-being. Our commitment to preserving the land as a farm and welcoming visitors is a testament to our love of nature and gratitude towards our community.
