Small Business Spotlight:
Blue Haze Farms

Blue Haze Farms in Nesbit is one of DeSoto County’s best-kept secrets that we want everyone in need of a staycation to know about. The business, which is owned by Tony and Cheryl Hayes, provides the ultimate glamping experience. Think an upscale tent, rustic cottage and a renovated airstream camper that will be available for bookings later this year. Glampers can cast a line or hop in a kayak on Blue Haze Lake, horseback ride, explore the grounds, meet the friendly farm animals and take part in goat yoga, too! Click here for more information about all the fun to be had at Blue Haze Farms.
