Wellspring
Wellspring is a country haven and an educational experience for those interested in the outdoors, quality food and a peaceful get-away. Wellspring offers a quiet country setting, nestled in the Milwaukee River Valley with gardens and nature trails, woods and meadows, ponds and prairies, an outdoor labyrinth and places to relax and rejuvenate. With 6 acres of organic gardens, we invite those who want to learn about gardening to come work beside us, attend a class, learn to make nutritious meals from harvested produce and preserve food for the winter.
