This was once a herb farm where they held workshops and other activities. The location consists of serveral buildings and the house of the owners.
They left all their stuff behind, so there was a lot of detail to photograph. You can clearly see traces of the fact that this was a herb farm: seed bags, jars filled with herbs, greenhouses and education posters about herbs and plants. In the house, I also found other old stuff people used in the early 1900's. From old books to old school technology.
There was no graffiti to be found and everything was in good condition. The only thing that was breaking down the location is just pure decay. For example, the kitchen was about to collapse. The stuff in the other buildings looked more modern. I even found a brand new laptop in one of the buildings. There were also a lot of paintings and art pieces from flowers, plants and herbs in that same building.
There's so much to this location that I wasn't completely satisfied (even after 3 hours), so there's a good chance I'll be revisiting this again.
Note: It's pretty easy to access the location. All you need to do is to get through a few bushes and nobody can see you from the road. Be aware for the neighbours though.
