Peppermint Brook Farm

Peppermint Brook Farm Peppermint Brook Farm is the beginning of a family homestead and ecofarm in Maine. Welcome to the Peppermint Brook Farm page.

We are a somewhat ordinary family embarking on an extraordinary path. For years we dreamed of taking our family out of the city and enjoying a life provided mostly by the land. After a difficult series of months we have finally achieved that goal, so join us as we make the move from Raleigh, North Carolina to the mountains of Maine. Where nearly 300 acres of wilderness awaits us with beautiful sce

nic views, plenty of opportunities to fish and camp, and two exquisite waterfalls. That's the nice side of the coin, on the other side of the coin is that there is a small cabin that needs a lot of T.L.C. to be liveable and all of the other challenges we will face preparing for this first winter and life near the Appalachian trail.

So The Beast was exhausted after a long night of hunting. She came in and passed out on my arm. I had to move my arm to snap a picture. She was out so cold that when I moved my arm her head smacked the table. Not even a flicker or twinge. Lol
