We take pride in sourcing from local farms and our organic garden. We embrace wildlife, plants, trees, and prairie restoration.

Home to pollinators and organic produce.

The 3 acres of exceptional produce and flowers allow pollinators to thrive in harmony. Wander through pebble stone walkways lined with flowers and vegetables. If you watch closely you'll often catch a bumble bee or monarch butterfly resting on a flower.

Master Gardener, Jon, works closely with Chef Joy to orchestrate a symphony of marvelous produce for the kitchen.

Taste fresh organic produce in every bite with the assurance that it's grown on-site. This benefits pollinators, lessens fuel emissions, and is pesticide free. Indulge your taste buds with savory herbs garnished on every meal.

Experience true tranquility and feel at one with nature.

The forest at Canoe Bay offers beautiful seclusion, peace, and is home to abundant wildlife.

Multiple life forms in an ecosystem promote an overall healthy biodiversity. We understand trees are crucial and provide a balance of oxygen and carbon.

While taking a stroll you'll often see deer roaming about, birds singing, and squirrels scurrying.

Canoe Bay truly takes pride in being a refuge to nature left in peace while explored, understood, and admired.

Controlled burns bring back vegetation and flowers stronger than before.

Prairie restoration efforts have significantly been improving our grounds for years. When a burning occurs it naturally nitrogen fixes the soil and promotes healthy growth of our native plants. Not to mention, prairies absorb abundant amounts of rain which reduces erosion and run off.
