Merci pour toutes les informations partagées au sujet de vos animaux et pour votre patience! On a bien aimé brosser les ânes et passer du temps avec eux. Ils sont très beaux et entre bonnes mains avec vous! Vous avez de beaux et bons produits aussi!

Had the greatest time on our Donkey Walking Tour today!! & then a little tour of the farm afterwards was FASCINATING. Also they were featured on an episode of Amazing Race Canada this season which is just SO COOL!! They make some amazing products too — I am a big fan and will be back for sure, definitely recommend! Such an educational and fun day 😊🙌

Wow! That was a lot of fun! We got to hang out with donkeys and we learned so much. Jean has a real passion for them, and when we left so did we! Donkeys are so so nice, wonderful animals. Truly chill and happy creatures, and smart! We picked up some donkey milk soap too, which is super high quality. We left the farm with a truly happy feeling. Donkeys are therapeutic?Thanks!

The Berry Homestead Farm was an amazing experience! Annick and Jean Sebastien are wonderful people who are passionate about and committed to what they do.
We discovered this farm through Terego, but visited for their donkey milk products.
They are also educators and very knowledgeable about the unique traits of donkeys. These animals are quite impressive. They’re social, organized, loyal, protective, and very smart.
I highly recommend a visit to the farm and a tour of their farm.

What an amazing experience!
Stopped in as a last minute visitor and the hosts were more than welcome to have us, and give us their undivided attention. Always making sure we felt welcomed, and constantly sharing a lifetime of knowledge in farming and animal husbandry. Truly a blessing to go!

Thanks again, I will be stopping by again!

We stayed at this incredible donkey and elderberry farm with our RV and were truly impressed by everything they offer. We arrived around 3 PM and were greeted warmly by the hosts. They speak English, French, and even a bit of Spanish, which made the experience even more accessible.

The RV spot was beautiful, right by the water, peaceful, and with a campfire area. It was so quiet at night that we had one of our best sleeps. We rented kayaks for four hours and enjoyed a relaxing paddle on the lake and river.

Beyond being a Harvest Hosts location, this farm has so much more to offer. It’s a space focused on sustainability, wellness, and education. Some of the experiences and services available include:

- Farm tours and visits to meet the donkeys
- Donkey-assisted therapy sessions
- Full Moon kayak trips and guided paddles
- Tarot readings and life coaching packages
- Workshops on biodynamic farming and wellness
- French immersion programs and school group activities
- Group retreats and corporate team-building options
- An on-site boutique with handmade donkey milk soaps, elderberry products, preserves, syrups, vinegars, honey, eggs, vegetables, and more.
- A beautiful and sustainable tiny house available on Airbnb
- Educational workshops focused on sustainable farming and wellness practices

*See the photos with the brochures for more details about the activities.

Whether you’re looking for a unique RV stop, a nature-based retreat, or an educational farm experience, this place delivers. It's a must-stop if you're travelling anywhere near Ottawa, Kingston, or Eastern Ontario.

Highly recommended for RVers, families, nature lovers, French learners, and anyone curious about sustainable living. We left feeling inspired and grateful for the opportunity to connect with such an intentional and creative space.

Wow! What an amazing experience this was. My mom and I went out and did the experience where you get to chill in the pasture with the donkeys. Such calm and gentle animals. My mom said I had a smile on my face the whole time. As an empath I highly recommend this experience as it is calming being around the donkeys and learning about them. Jean and Annick are lovely people who you will learn a lot from. I also bought a bar of soap that they make using donkeys milk. I will definitely go back and do this again! Thank you Jean and Annick for this amazing experience and opening up your farm like this for people to gain this experience!
