Come visit, explore, and connect with aromatic and medicinal plants, nature, and one another.

Yarrow Creek Farm is a 70-acre botanical dream unfolding and is the home of the School for Aromatic Studies education center.

The farm is located in the Appalachian region of Southwest Virginia in Stuart, VA, not far from Fairy Stone State Park and about thirty minutes south of the Blue Ridge parkway and the musical town of Floyd, VA.

Jade’s journey to this land has been richly woven with blue heron, rattlesnake, woodpecker & hummingbird, frankincense, snake skin, tarot, strong women, photography, Jungian therapy and studies, massage therapy, plants, the forest, and other gifts. It has also been woven with tears, pain, relearning, reconnecting, and acceptance. And it is through this journey, that Jade finally opens up this sacred land for students to visit, explore, and connect with aromatic and medicinal plants, nature, and one another.

The biodiverse landscape here on the farm is home to hundreds of plant species and an abundance of wildlife that we share the land with. We strive to provide a safe, welcoming sanctuary for plants, animals, and humans from all walks of life.

Our botanical farm includes pasture, forest, two spring fed ponds, a beautiful 30ft Yurt, and the retreat center. The retreat area of the farm hosts three student cabins, a bathroom and shower facility, botanical gardens, a student kitchen and classroom space, and Jade’s Garden cabin.

Accomodation

The Student Cabins

Yarrow, Mullein, and Pine student cabins can house 3-4 students each with plenty of space for personal belongings. Each cabin contains two full beds and one twin bed or two twin and one full. The cabins are rustic, simple, and incredibly comfy. 

All mattresses are natural and organic with most of them being Avocado mattresses. Sheets, pillows, and mattress are protected by waterproof casing by Avocado, protecting you and others who sleep in the space.

There is electricity in the cabins. Each cabin contains a heater to keep warm on autumn nights or cool spring evenings. Each cabin also contains small couch, luggage racks, and/or other storage.

The bathhouse is a very short walk away. In the evenings, we will make sure this is well lit! We have two indoor showers and one full bathroom in the bathhouse.  Extra restrooms are on campus.
