​

Allegheny Farm is situated between 4000 and 4400 feet in elevation on 550-acres of temperate forest and clearings on Allegheny Mountain. The farm and surrounding land is on traditional and unceded territory of the Moneton, Monacan, and Manahoac Peoples in present day Highland County, VA, bordering both Virginia's George Washington National Forest and West Virginia's Monongahela National Forest. Headwater tributaries of the James, Potomac, and Greenbrier Rivers all begin their flow from a triple watershed divide (Eastern Continental) located on the top of the mountain.

 

As we grow our food, drink fresh spring water, and draw sustenance the surrounding fields and forests, we respectfully acknowledge that Indigenous and more recent settler inhabitants have stewarded this land throughout the generations. It is also home for diverse more-than-human communities which have inhabited and tended it through the deepest of time.

​

The cultivated farm hosts a one-acre vegetable garden, and a small orchard, with a rotating cast of animals, from small herds of cattle, broilers, laying chickens, ducks, beehives.  The whole-system farm is a living classroom for restorative and sustainable growing methods, wild foraging, agro-forestry, small and large animal husbandry, rotational grazing, food preservation, and whole foods cooking. The Allegheny Farm is Certified Naturally Grown and utilizes a variety of sustainable and regenerative growing practices. 

​

Vegetables are sold at the Monterey Farmers Market, local Highland Roots Market, and donated to emergency food initiatives in Highland County.
