A place to retreat, to stay
Come and stay, experience a retreat at Fantasy Farm
Staying at Fantasy Farm can take various forms and durations, the program is done over time and seasons, intuitively, in co-creation.
Mark is your host at Fantasy Farm
The recommended duration for an immersive stay is at least one week, allowing you to settle down, understand the place, giving yourself the time and space to journey and learn from your stay.
Allow yourself to live an immersive experience, a simple, 'eco-logical', natural, collaborative way of life.
It is also possible to come to Fantasy Farm for a short break, Fantasy Farm is listed on MisterBNB to stay a few nights, a weekend, a stop on the road that you can also book here.
Fantasy Farm is a place to learn and experiment. Retreats are an opportunity to live the Fantasy Farm experience and participate in varied thematic workshops.
The themes of the retreats offered are: massage, naked tantra yoga for men, gay tantra, ecoqueer permaculture, spirituality and fasting.
The retreats at Fantasy Farm start on Thursday afternoon and end on Sunday afternoon. You can plan a longer stay around a retreat or outside of a retreat period.
These are inclusive and all-included. The only supplement being the cost of transport.
Artistic residencies are also possible at Fantasy Farm, allowing artists to create, rehearse and present their work to a caring local audience.
Please make contact by informal email detailing the project and needs.
We will then be able to see if we can build a project together. contact@fanfarm.org
Fantasy Farm is also a place to live. Your host, Mark is the permanent resident.
There is no maximum length of stay, temporary residencies or the desire to settle for an indefinite period are entirely possible. This will happen naturally and organically in the form of a happy cohabitation.
Ecology of Fantasy Farm
Ecological awareness pushes us to review our ways of thinking, our lifestyles and consumption.
Sharing, cooperation, food production are the only solutions to live in a future which is already so much part of our present.
Nature is diverse, without prejudice or binarity, it is also a source of benefits for mental and psychological health for all beings who venture there. The magical dimensions of the forests and the wild only add an extra layer to make the countryside, an ideal place of natural fulfillment for sensitive LGBTQI beings.
Fantasy Farm starts from these observations and offers a fulfilling environment, a sustainable and ecological place to live, a magical and spiritual place.
Activities at Fantasy Farm
Nature and its cycles hold central stage at Fantasy Farm, it is linked to the sweetness of life, the pleasure of meals, moments to rest and heal.
The vegetable garden, the orchard, gardening are part of the daily activities alongside general upkeep and maintenance. These all are sources of well being.
Meal preparation is an important part of life at Fantasy Farm. Two kitchens, a well-stocked pantry, plenty of spices and a wide variety of ingredients make it possible to create delicious meals together.
Yoga, meditation, massage, dance are regularly practiced during the themed retreats or freely at any other moment.
The stage in the barn is the place to practice workshops and put on a show. During the retreats, a 'non-talent show' is organized. All forms of creative and artistic expression are welcome.
The drag room is expanding, donations of clothes, costumes, heels, wigs or any drag accessories are encouraged.
Lunar and solar cycles are an occasion to develop awareness, organise rituals, coming to stay at these times will add some extra magic to your experience.
Festivities, joy, freedom and pride are also celebrated at Fantasy Farm, a covered or open-air dance floor is improvised so easily that it would be a shame not to take advantage of it.
Daily tasks are shared naturally. Our interhuman relationships must follow a sustainable and ecological logic thanks to the care and attention we give to others, to ourselves, in all our actions.
No technical skills are required, an open and caring state of mind is enough.
Everything is learned by observing and practicing.
By exchanging our knowledge, our know-how, our experiences, we evolve.
