 The farm was bought in 2018, with the house dating back to the 1900s. Up until the 1990s, the space was used as a hay field for cattle. There is not much history on this particular plot of land, but the small town of Ashville has much to tell.

 

 The farm consists of 6.5 acres, with four acres originally fenced in. An additional acre was fenced in during summer of 2020. During the first year, a new fence was installed around the original four acres and a large 20x60 foot garden was planted. Two senior horses, Simon and Dave, were the first to move to the property, calling the land home. Shortly after, a small flock of sheep and chickens were added, completing our little farm. The farm rapidly grew, adding more sheep, milk goats, and several species of poultry including turkeys and guinea fowl.

 

 Our recent endeavor was becoming certified through A Greener World as an Animal Welfare Approved farm. By obtaining this certificate, it states that our practices are in the best interest of the animal and guarantees that our animals are raised sustainably and on pasture their entire lives. 

​​​

 The goal of the farm is to operate as self-sufficiently, sustainably, and  holistically as possible. Each animal plays a role in maintaining the land, controlling pests, and providing a good or service for the farm. You can view our products made on the farm, by the farm. Enjoy woolen goods, fresh eggs, and meat, right from our own backyard.
