Welcome to Rose Haven Farm Store in downtown Picton and Rose Haven Nature Cottage in South Bay. Rose Haven Farm Store is a delightful funky shop at 173 Main Street, accessible off Elizabeth. The Store specializes in being, as one recent customer described it, the Vogue of yarn shops ~ a fabulous experience for fibre aficionados. The Store is also a great place to find handmade gifts from the County and region as well as products based on sheep. Please see the section on Farm Store. The Farm Store is also home to many fibre arts workshops, ranging from a few hours to a whole week of activities. The list is always being updated. In addition, Rose Haven Farm Store attends a number of Fibre Shows to assist in your convenience. See Workshops & Fibre Shows for current offerings. Rose Haven Farm has sold the former sheep farm so no longer offers a B & B. However, Rose Haven Nature Cottage is still available for those who love privacy. This fully self-contained log house at South Bay can be rented by the day, 2 days or week and is available year round. See Accommodations for details.
