Join us for a 1.5-2 hour stroll around the property to learn all about our unique lifestyle and architectural choices. Farming techniques and informative lessons abound on this appointment-only guided private tour for you and yours. A minimum of 2 weeks prior registration is ideal. After payment, please fill out the registration form (found below the details) and email to carolyn@turtleislandpreserve.com.

Please keep in mind, Eustace no longer meets with the public, but his informative and engaging staff are happy to share his life's work in descriptive detail - rain or shine! Autographed photos and biographies are available on site through our kiosk, so please bring cash or check. Please also let us know what type of vehicle you’ll be travelling in. Low ground clearance and electric cars sometimes have difficulty on our steep gravel road.

Testimonials

“I just wanted to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for giving us the opportunity to explore what Eustace has created. My mama and aunt were able to walk those grounds and connect on a deeper level to a show they have practically memorized! Our tour guide was amazing in every way!! We have not stopped talking about our time. Again…we appreciate it so much!”
