PHOENIX ACRES FARM
About Phoenix Acres Farm
Phoenix Acres Farm is a mother-daughter-owned regenerative farm located in Clyde, North Carolina. Founded with a passion for sustainability, creativity, and community, the farm is devoted to growing high-quality, chemical-free cut flowers and seasonal produce using regenerative practices that restore soil health and protect the environment. Phoenix Acres Farm is more than a place to grow and sell products — it is a hub for community engagement, education, and celebration of the natural world. The farm’s mission is to make Phoenix Acres Farm a staple in the local flower and agricultural industry by prioritizing sustainable practices, local sourcing, and community relationships. Phoenix Acres proudly embraces values of environmental stewardship, diversity, and inclusion. Through its regenerative approach, the farm supports pollinators, builds healthy soil, and reduces its carbon footprint while providing fresh, local products that enrich customers’ lives. Community engagement is central to the farm’s purpose, from educational workshops to partnerships with organizations and it prides itself on being a safe space for marginalized groups. Phoenix Acres Farm offers a diverse range of products that capture both the beauty and abundance of the land. Seasonal cut flowers are available as single stems or arranged in colorful bouquets and seasonal produce is sold in local produce stands and at our farm stand (coming August 2025), while handcrafted goods like Yule logs, original art, barn quilts, note cards, coloring books, and farm-themed apparel provide unique gift options. The farm’s growing nursery program features hardy native and regional plants, including hydrangeas, rhododendrons, mountain laurel, elderberries, and stunning dahlia tubers, giving customers the chance to bring sustainable beauty into their own gardens and landscapes. To make its offerings accessible, Phoenix Acres operates through multiple channels, including farmers markets, on-farm sales events, local retail partnerships, and an emerging online store. Its CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) subscriptions provide customers with fresh, seasonal flowers, herbs, and produce on a regular basis, strengthening their connection to local food and farming. Workshops and on-farm experiences are also central to Phoenix Acres Farm’s mission. These events invite community members to learn and create in a friendly, hands-on atmosphere. Workshops will include topics like floral design, wreath making, gourd/pumpkin decorating, sustainable gardening, oil painting, and farm-inspired crafts, helping build community bonds while sparking creativity. At its core, Phoenix Acres Farm is about much more than growing food and flowers — it is about nurturing community, honoring the land, and promoting environmental sustainability. Through its blend of art, education, regenerative farming, and nursery offerings, Phoenix Acres Farm is cultivating a vibrant, resilient place where people can find fresh, local products, learn new skills, and feel a sense of belonging. It is a farm rooted in hope, growth, and the belief that together, we can build a healthier, more connected future.
