Migration with the New Jersey Audubon

After exhilarating adventure, stay in our award-winning luxury cottages.

Grounded by the pastoral comforts of Beach Plum Farm, this overnight package balances discovery with the ease and elegance of our MICHELIN award-winning collection of guest cottages. Days afield give way to warm hospitality, seasonal farm-driven meals, and evenings to reflect on the day’s sightings beneath wide coastal skies. It’s an experience that connects you more closely to place, purpose, and the enduring work of protecting birds and their habitats—an inspiring celebration of movement, stewardship, and the wild beauty of South Jersey in motion.

Expertly led excursions, and a sense of connection.

Migration is as much about connection as it is about discovery. Through guided excursions led by New Jersey Audubon naturalists, guests explore the landscape together—sharing sightings, insights, and the quiet exhilaration that comes from moving through the fields and shorelines in step with the season. These shared hours outdoors naturally foster conversation and camaraderie, turning small groups of travelers into a temporary community united by curiosity, attentiveness, and a love of the natural world.

That sense of togetherness carries from the field to the farmhouse table. Evenings unfold over thoughtfully prepared, farm‑to‑table meals, where the day’s experiences are revisited and stories flow as easily as the wine. Surrounded by the warmth of Beach Plum Farm’s hospitality, guests gather not as strangers, but as fellow participants in a collective experience—one shaped by nature, stewardship, and the simple pleasure of sharing good food and meaningful moments.
