It’s worth the country drive to experience the special energy of Sunwise Farm & Sanctuary. After seeing the new art, treat yourself to time on the porch and stroll through milkweed fields that feed the Monarchs and forests that shield deer, pass by the Super Collider Conductor and walk back to Honeysuckle Haven.
