About Los Poblanos

We chose this incredible inn and organic farm because it is luxurious, welcoming, and has an exclusive space for our classroom that is bright and pretty. Additionally, there are spaces for us to be together outside the classroom and create community in crafting. The rooms are beautifully appointed and the food is award-winning. There are so many extras that are included in the Los Poblanos experience. Watch the opening video on their site and be transported to another world!
