OPEN RIDGE FARM
About Open Ridge Farm
Open Ridge Farm is a small permaculture-inspired market garden and young orchard in the beautiful South Toe Valley, along Rock Creek. We currently offer "beyond-organic", no-till annual veggies, asparagus, apples and grapes, as well as our Pica Rica Hot Sauces. We grow all the peppers on-site and process in our Farm Kitchen. Our Farm Kitchen also serves as a great space for our seasonal Farm Dinners, which include "family-friendly" and "Summit to Supper". Ask about private farm dinners and events. You can find us on Facebook and Instagram, and join our email list to hear about farm dinners. We are at Yancey County Farmers Market on Saturdays, and locals can sign up for our twice-weekly farm pick-up. Our website lists all the locations you can find our hot sauce.
