A short dialogue
Hello, teachers!
Would you please help me with these?
- Where are you heading/headed? / (The) Green Farm. So if we just go on down the road here, are we going the right direction? / Yes. It's about a mile that way. You can't miss the sign.
1. Are both 'heading' and 'headed' correct?
2. Do we use 'the' with the name of a farm, or not?
3. Are these sentences all correct?
Thank you very much.
Peace!

I would love to join the discussion, even though I'm not confident about what I might say. Please let me know if I'm making mistakes. Thank you.
This is a tricky question. When "farm" is mentioned, "Animal Farm" comes to my mind. As Mister Micawber said, really not so sure whether there should be a "the". "Animal Farm" belongs to the animals though.
