Services
Nourishing bodies, educating minds & soothing souls through sustainable farming, herbalism & aromatherapy~. Willow's Bend Farm is more than just a place of business, it is a way of life. Our farm works with nature instead of against. We don't use chemicals; instead, we create environments in which predatory insects thrive, shallow rooted weeds are allowed to grow, and fertilizer comes from the plants themselves.
This information has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. When working with essential oils, never use them undiluted, in eyes or mucus membranes. Do not take internally unless working with a qualified and expert practitioner.
Here at Willows Bend Farm we believe that all herbs are medicinal. It is certainly true that herbs have been used to cure diseases for millennia. Even herbs we ordinarily view as strictly culinary have medicinal properties. For example, Rosemary tastes great with wild game and is a potent anti-microbial.

1st meetup with some of the Rays. I have to say this is the perfect spot. The garden is very whimsical; little bird houses, bowling balls, different herbs and floral throughout. There’s even a bedpost in the lawn (I love how they repurposed it). Edward the rooster is very friendly, two other chickens and 3 peacocks. The magic is inside the side building. There’s an array of herbs, spices and oils. You can make your own magic potion or buy many of their other oils. Unsure: just ask our wonderful host Alisa and Sandy for their recommendations. Great place to feel the comfort of home; superb coffee

This place is sunshine on a rainy day... Puts your mind and soul at ease. My boyfriend and I love going here. If they dont have it they help to find it. Lots of different animals on site...my fave are the peacocks. Alisa can make any potion for anything ailing you. Very knowledgeable couple. Very sweet and caring.I could hang out here all day. It's very enchanting. :) My best friend introduced me to this place a couple years ago and it is OUR go-to place for anything we need.I highly recommend this place!

A great place with lots of goodies! I could not live without joint relief for my hands and calm puppy is a dog whisperer! Lunch is yummy and the plants a value for the price. Love all the animals, too. If you want a big box place, you might want to move on. If you want quaint, caring and compassion, by all means go!

A true diamond in the rough. I drove by this place for months and didn’t really notice it, then gave it a try based on the recommendation of a friend.
This is now our go-to place to eat. Home cooking produced in a commercial-grade kitchen. Very reasonably priced, as well.
Lots of people call in for take out, but we like to eat there at least once a week. It only has two tables, which is fine. With all the herbs and spices lining the walls, plus the food being prepared, the place smells great.
Alisa and Sanford are wonderful, interesting people, and Alisa is a great cook. The meals and good
