THE GROWING FARM
About The Growing Farm
The Growing Farm is located just outside of Hot Springs in the Pisgah National Forest. We raise dairy goats, chickens, bees and produce. Our offerings include eggs, herbs, peppers and garlic. We are interested in partnering with local food, tea and herbal producers. We love to grow and we'd love to grow for you.
