"Wild Orchard Guest Farm has been a quiet and conducive place to finish my novel, Snow Falls From Heaven. A ripe and peaceful silence permeates the beautifully restored colonial farmhouse, broken only by the wind in the trees, fall leaves blazing liquid gold outside my window. Or perhaps the cry of a rooster, the bleat of a goat, or the clopping sound of a horse and rider out in front along the narrow dirt lane. I look forward to another visit!"
Lenaye Siegel - Maine - Fall 2007

"As an author and doctoral student at a local university, I have spent many long weekends at Wild Orchard - it has become my home away from home. It is a wonderful, restful and peaceful place conducive to deep thinking and flows of creative energy. As artists themselves, Molly and Paul are gracious and lovely hosts and have created a warm and inviting haven for those of us in need of periodic escapes into quiet and solitude. I am thankful to have discovered this very special place where the crowing of the rooster and the cries of the resident peacocks welcome you to each new day, and you will be too."
Lynson Moore Beaulieu

Labyrinth - Click for detailed view

Labryinth
The labyrinth is a mystical design of unknown origin, rich in universal symbolism. Today, all over the world, people work with this ancient symbol in a variety of ways, yet no one has unlocked its mystery. Our walk-able design, inspired by the movement of a pendulum, is a reference to the passage of time. Its faceted perimeter echoes the deeply symbolic architecture of the Nott Memorial.

"I had a wonderful time visiting Wild Orchard Guest Farm. Building the labyrinth was a great experience, even the goats enjoyed it! The surrounding landscape is very peaceful and private, a wonderful place for a labyrinth and a weekend getaway."

Hypnotic enchantment
Strolling divine
Around purple circles
Absent of time
Into your center
A scent of your soul
Matters are mindless
An infinite whole
A wish for forever
A secret to find
You share with yourself your own sacred wine
