The farm is currently off grid and operates on sunshine and mountain air. It has gone through many changes from boarding horses to pigs and cattle to organic produce. I am currently terracing for added crop land and setting up for gravity fed irrigation for the crops. My home is run on solar and wind battery bank with primitive amenities. Educational tours by appointment. The children grown and the farm lacking the sounds of youth is going through another change. Opening to campers and hikers. We are a short 7 miles form the terminus of the Virginia Creeper trail in White Top Virginia. There is not vehicle access today but we are working on that.
