The Imagination Farm

We got the potholes fixed for now! But keep an eye out for storm drains. We mark them with large cones during events.

The farm has ants, stumps, and is mostly grass. We recommend wearing or bringing a pair of closed-toe shoes with you. If hanging out for a while, you may want to bring a blanket, folding chair, or whatever you’d typically sit on at a park. We do have a picnic table and a few chairs, but seating is limited. Farm vibes are casual and shade varies by time of year; wear something comfortable!

The farm is an outdoor space, so there’s always a chance of bugs. However, bug spray is always available and we have a variety of preventative measures in place for events. We have also planted citronella and lemongrass around the farm as a natural deterrent. Please note that we have basic first aid supplies for bites and stings, but we are not equipped to handle potentially life-threatening allergic reactions.

Yes, kids are welcome! However, we do not provide childcare unless otherwise stated for an event. Please remember that this is a farm with precious plant relatives and various hazards. We encourage you to keep a close eye on children.

Yes. The farm has a private, single-occupancy (or family) bathroom with a compost toilet. It looks like an RV or boat toilet and is surprisingly not smelly. The toilet will function even when there is power and water loss due to a hurricane, etc. Steps are required to access the bathroom. It is unfortunately not ADA compliant.

We are seeking funds for additional space and a bathroom build that is more accessible – if you have any leads, please contact klie@imaginewaterworks.org.

Yes. We work out of a small, converted shipping container located on the property (think “tiny house”). It has A/C and can be used in the event of an emergency. We always have cold water on hand, cooling gel packs, personal neck fans to borrow, and various first aid supplies in case you get overheated. Please note that this is a cooling space only and cannot be used to host events – it can accommodate cozy meetings of 4-5 people.

Parts of the yard do have some shade, as well as our small porch, but please note that the porch can only seat a few people. Our main yard (with the picnic tables where most events are held) is not shaded. We have sunscreen on hand, so please ask for it if you need some!

Unfortunately, no. Our bathroom and small cooling area both require a few, small steps. We do not have accessible pathways, but we do keep thick plywood on hand in case we need to build a pathway in a pinch. Disability justice is deeply important to us, and we are hoping to one day secure the funding necessary to build in ways that meet community needs.
