Welcome to Smoky Mountain Heritage Farm

WELCOME TO SMOKY MOUNTAIN HERITAGE FARM!! We are a small family farm tucked between the Smoky and Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina. We are dedicated to sustainable, organic farming raising animals, vegetables and fruit similar to the way our forefathers did. We are dedicated to heritage breeds and heirloom seeds while we seek to preserve the unique agricultural heritage of our region. Thanks for stopping by our site. Grab a glass of sweet tea, kick your feet up and take a gander at the pages of our website... we hope you enjoy them... hey, who knows... you might even learn something if you're not careful!  OH, and when you have a chance, call your elected representatives and tell them that the awful National Animal Identification System (NAIS) needs to be shut down while we still have some small family farms left!!

 The Coast Guard Hymn

Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea!

Eternal Father, Lord of hosts,
Watch o'er the men who guard our coasts.
Protect them from the raging seas
And give them light and life and peace.
Grant them from thy great throne above
The shield and shelter of thy love.
