then you might not have an idea.
It's a hidden gem. It's very
beautiful and hilly, with lots
of forest. The Farm is near lots
of national forest and several
lakes. We have a really nice
food co-op in Paoli, about 9
miles away. French Lick is just
about 5 miles away. It's a
little tourist town, with
several historic spa resorts,
lots of restaurants and things
to do. Bloomington, a
progressive college town, is
about 1 hour away and so is
Louisville, which is culturally
diverse and has a lot going on.
