Engage
We welcome individuals into a supportive, nature-based environment where they feel safe, seen, and inspired to grow.
Health & Wellness
Cobles Landing Health and Wellness
Our nonprofit program arm — using the same 25 acres to bring agriculture, conservation, horticulture and outdoor education to schools, youth groups, families and community partners.
Health that starts with the land
Cobles Landing Health and Wellness is the nonprofit side of the property. Where the camping and recreation side is a family business, this side exists to put people — especially young people and families who rarely get the chance — onto a working landscape where food grows, pollinators work and the outdoors is close enough to touch.
These are program offerings supported through partnerships, grants and donations, distinct from the paid recreation side of the property.
Our Mission
Cobles Health & Wellness creates a structured, nature-based space for learning, growth, and real-world skill development.
A place to learn. A place to heal. A place to grow.

Program Areas
What the program does
Farm and Garden
Our working farm and growing plots are the classroom. Participants walk the land and into the working parts of it — chickens, goats, ducks, a donkey, and our beekeeping operation — plus the growing seasons and the everyday care that keeps 25 acres producing. It's hands-on by design: kids touch, ask and help, and adults usually end up asking just as many questions. The animals and hives are all part of the educational tour experience.
Beekeeping
A working apiary on the property anchors our pollinator work. We practice sustainable, ethical beekeeping that supports a healthy ecosystem — for the hives, for the wildflowers around them, and for the land that holds it all together. Hive demonstrations and pollinator education are offered as part of the program.
Horticulture & Nature Walks
Guided walks through woods, field edges and the pond shoreline teach native plants, seasonal cycles, soil health and water stewardship at a pace anyone can keep. Slow movement outdoors is part of the health benefit, not a side effect of it.
Outdoor Education
Structured, curriculum-friendly programming for schools, scout troops, church groups and youth organizations — environmental science, agriculture, food systems and land stewardship taught outside, on a real working landscape.
Sweat Lodge
Coming SoonA dedicated sweat lodge area is being built out on the property as part of the Health and Wellness program. It is not open to guests, is not bookable, and no opening date has been set. We'll share more as the space takes shape.
