Flowertown Charm offers farm escape in town limits

This urban space offers a place to stay, a mini farm, and an area for crafts + goat experiences.

The mini farm offers seasonal activities.

Book a farm stay in a historic home, get a taste of mini-farm life, make crafts, and enjoy goat experiences, all in downtown Summerville. Chris + Jenna Pelayo enjoy sharing their love for animals and farm life with their visitors. Keep reading to learn about Flowertown Charm.

The Pelayos say most of the area around their property located on Stallsville Loop was farmland before Summerville was even a town. They have a fun saying that describes their property: “city in the front, and country in the back.” Today, Flowertown Charm is surrounded by shops, grocery stores, and the hustle + bustle the outskirts of downtown Summerville creates. The Pelayos are living out their farm dreams while also bringing their 1870s Colonial farmhouse back to life with renovations and DIY projects.

What Flowertown Charm offers

  • Mini farm: The urban farm features dwarf goats, mini-Scottish Highland cows, fancy chickens, honey bees, a giant tortoise, bunnies, dogs, and barn cats.
  • Goat experiences: Roast Marshmallows, make candles, paint ornaments, snuggle, and do yoga alongside goats.
  • Stay: The space is rented to one party at a time so that you will be the only guest in the home. They offer two connecting guest rooms— you can rent both or just one room. Up to five guests can be accommodated.
  • Shop: Shop items made on the farm. Goat milk soaps, soy candles, and farmhouse lazy susans and racks are for sale.

Hello everyone, City Editor Callie here. I planned a trip to the Flowertown Charm over the weekend, but unfortunately, the threat of bad weather canceled things. But I’ve rescheduled for this week. I can’t wait to share my experience with you, so keep an eye on Instagram.
