Green Heart Farm Green Heart Farm is a high-mountain farm in Madison Co. along the Blue Ridge of the NC/ TN border.

Green Heart Farm is a mix of high-mountain gardens and orchards nestled along the Blue Ridge of Southern Appalachia near Max Patch Bald, in North Carolina. We cultivate a variety of fruits and vegetables using organic, permaculture, & biodynamic methods, and especially focus on heirloom apples, blueberries, asparagus, rhubarb, shiitake mushrooms, and christmas trees. Our produce, preserves, and craft goods are available from April - November, and can be found at our road-side farm stand or at various markets, events, and restaurant venues around the Asheville, NC area. We also host eco-tourism events at our farm and offer lodging accommodations at nearby Green Heart Forest. Above all else, we strive to cultivate harmony as stewards of our land. Each year we learn more and more through our experience how to "cultivate our farm as organism", in the words and guidance of Rudolf Steiner. Because of our remote location and elevation there are a number of unique challenges we face, all of which are part of the fun of developing a more well-adapted sense of self and place and honoring the gifts we have been given.

My heart is feeling so full from the workshop last weekend and I’m excited for the blossoming of 2024! 💚 Monday I started collecting scion and continued pruning in the orchards. March 16th we’re co-hosting a grafting workshop with The Farm Connection and Lyndon Smith. So, mark your calendars! I’m signing off of social media for 10 days, starting today, to sit for a meditation retreat. Here’s to going within and connecting to source, and to the dormant season that allows us to root down and prepare for the coming of Spring! 🪷💫🌱

Mark your calendars folks! Our first workshop of the season, Fruit Tree Pruning and Holistic Orchard Management, is set for February 10th at Green Heart Farm.

Please join us in the orchards to further cultivate your knowledge and experience on how to manage your fruit trees holistically and work with nature's cycles & rhythms.

Also, for all you foodies out there, we'll have a delicious potluck including hot apple c***r, spring water, and a big 'ole pot of Changua, a traditional Columbian egg-drop soup, prepared by the farm crew.

Scion wood will be available for purchase at the workshop, along with bare root fruit trees, select amendments, and pruning tools.

And, as always, kids are totally welcome 🙌

See y'all then! 💚

Our first workshop of the 2024 season is scheduled and its gonna be AWESOME! Join us for a Fruit Tree Pruning and Holistic Orchard Management Workshop at Green Heart Farm on Saturday Feb 10th!

Hey folks, we’ll be doing Christmas tree harvests this weekend (Saturday 10-4pm and Sunday noon-2pm)! 🌲 Trees are $50-100 sliding scale.

We grow “regenerative Christmas trees” and have never sprayed our trees. By cutting above the first three rungs of branches the tree is left alive and able to generate new growth, which will eventually become another tree top, ideal for harvest again in about 10-12 years. We also prune our trees mínimally so that there is less impact on the tree and it’s a little easier to hang ornaments.😉

If you’re interested in coming to the farm this weekend, please PM me to confirm a time.

Also, I apologize for getting this message out so late in the week. I’ve been feeling pretty worn down lately and wasn’t sure if I was really up for it this weekend.

Happy Holidays to you and yours and I hope to see some folks this weekend! 🎄🎁🎊
