LoveJoy Meadow @ Shilo Farm

Friends / Collaborators / Dreamers / Manifesters

Shilo Farm in Eliot, Maine, in partnership with LoveJoy Meadow, will be an incubator seed garden for Hearth.  Shilo Farm grows over 75 different medicinal flowers and herbs, and has just expanded their perennial row crops to over 5,700 square feet at LoveJoy Meadow… literally across the street! In this next year we’ll be building a drying room enabling us to become a primary herb supplier for Hearth’s Elixir Bar, as well as providing forages to elevate your most familiar comfort foods at Hearth’s Center Realm.

Think Tulsi, Rose and Hibiscus teas, Local Berry Bowls with goldenberries, blueberries and schisandra, Garlic Nettle soup or Roasted Sunchokes with spring chives and ramp butter!

We are a place to learn about, grow and seed plants that will enhance flavor and nutrition, farmers’ crop diversity, and agricultural resilience. 

Would you like to be a Supportive Farm Partner and expand into a new crop niche?  

If so, please let us know!

C & C Masonry, LLC

Cameron Gallant and Chris Terlton are the local stonemasons that created the magnificent hand-crafted stone hearth that will warm our bones in the winter and be a centerpiece for gatherings. Infused with love and intention, each stone was individually selected and chiseled to perfection. 

Can you spot the heart stones nestled within the hearth?

It truly does take a village!

We are deeply grateful for his collaborative spirit as he worked patiently with us to find just the right lime washes to capture the earthly palette of terracotta, fern, and mushroom. And a special thank you to Irena who stepped in to offer her skill and assistance in the process!
