We live on an evolving mountain homestead in Haywood County, NC. Two Trees Farm, is nestled in a high elevation valley in the Appalachian mountains. An amazing and challenging place to work towards living off the land; Our connection to nature inspires us to live lightly on the Earth and help others to do so as well.
Labor of Love
Our adventure on the property has involved setting up gardens, orchards, installing greenhouses, preparing pastures, installing solar power, and building a blacksmith shop. It has been a labor of love. Our goal is to feed ourselves and our community from small, intensively managed, organic gardens. We are currently applying our knowledge to heal our growing spaces destroyed in Hurrican Helene. Despite our set back, we will move forward to create beautiful fertile soils and return our farm to an ecological and regenerative demonstration of how to live in harmony with the land.
Our tools and structures we build are constantly evolving. "Making things as we need them," is our motto. This results in the creation of unique items that are specially designed for sustainable living, satisfy artistic spirits, and support a connection to the land. We offer tested tools that are designed to be functional, beautiful, and to last long enough to be an heirloom.
sharing our knowledge
After realizing the skills and knowledge we have is in high demand we decided to share our life with others. We excel at utilizing the natural processes in the environment instead of dreaming of a property which is “perfect” and does not exist. You can create a sustainable home and gardens even if you do not have "farmable land." We want to help you live more sustainably with the right knowledge and tools, and without giving up quality of life.
educational opportunities
Two Trees Farm hosts educational experiences in sustainability. You can learn from our journey of trying to create a sustainable mountain farm. We look forward to sharing the knowledge we have in organic gardening, blacksmithing and metal work, food preservation, and installation of native habitats. Living simply so that others can simply live is one of our favorite mottoes! We also feel that living simply extends to simply having a lot of fun, a beautiful homestead that functions to support your dreams and simply loving the land on which we live.
