About the Farm
Background
Located in Leland, North Carolina, this farm has established itself as a local hub for a wide range of herb and vegetable plants, including many heirloom varieties. Known for its dedication to providing fresh and high-quality produce, the farm has become a staple at several local farmers' markets, including the Wilmington Farmers Market, Riverfront Farmers Market, Southport Summer Market, and Shallotte Farmers' Market.
Practices
The farm emphasizes growing what they sell, ensuring that all plants are cultivated on-site. This includes a diverse selection of herb plants, vegetable plants, and native herbs, as well as butterfly and bee plants. The farm also supplies fresh-cut herbs, micro greens, and edible flowers to local restaurants and caterers, maintaining a close connection with the local food community.
The Rest
In addition to plant sales, the farm offers a variety of educational opportunities, including classes, workshops, farm tours, and garden talks. They are open year-round, providing plants for every season, and actively engage with the community through events and farmers' markets. The farm also hosts unique activities such as Salt Soul Yoga and provides gift cards for purchase.
