Feather Village Farm is a small family-owned and operated fruit and herb farm located in Snow Camp, North Carolina. We’ve been growing blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, figs, apples, cherries, pears, peaches, persimmons, jujubes, grapes, service berries, pecans, most culinary herbs and various native and medicinal perennials on our 10-acre property for over 20 years. As one might imagine, birds love to hang out here among the berries and fruits, hence, the name of our little place–Feather Village, in honor of our feathered friends. In addition to our container-grown herbs, perennials, fruit shrubs and trees, we sell our fresh blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, figs, muscadines, service berries, jujubes, native and oriental persimmons by the pint, and other fruits and nuts when available and plentiful.  We do not use pesticides on anything we sell.

Prodigal Farm, LLC

Prodigal Farm in northern Durham County is one of only two Animal Welfare Approved goat cheese dairies in North Carolina. Kathryn Spann, Dave Krabbe, and their stellar farmhands are slaves to about 250 goats that are never confined to a barn, and get moved to fresh pasture every week. They make their cheeses using only the milk from their own herd. Their family farm is on a 97-acre former tobacco farm, where they use both the pasture and the woods as forage for their goats. Our goats are all pastured on our 97 acre farm.  Most goat dairies aren’t pasture-based any more, but our herd gets rotated to fresh forage (which changes with the seasons and includes woodland) weekly.  This means our cheese demonstrates true terroir, a taste of place.  That place is our family farm, in an area where Kathryn’s family has farmed for 300 years.  We also produce delicious goat meat, and prepared foods using items produced on our farm and by other farms in our area.  Kathryn is chair of Durham’s Farmland Protection Advisory Board, which seeks to preserve farmland, both by using conservation easements so that the land will never be developed, and by helping farmers find more ways to profit from their efforts.

T-5 Farm

We are a small family farm dedicated to producing “homegrown” chicken, eggs, beef and produce to provide local families with a healthy alternative to commercially raised products. Located in Southern Alamance County, North Carolina, we are implementing sustainable practices to bring our farm back to the the way it was when my grandparents “lived off the land”. We are not certified “organic”, but we have practically eliminated the use of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides to provide a healthy alternative to large-scale operations. All of our animals are raised without antibiotics or growth hormones, and are fed no animal by-products.
