Seeking
- 0-5 Total acres
- 0-5 Acres of cropland or tillable land
Desired locations
Seeking 2–10 acres to grow vegetables, raise poultry, and build a sustainable, community-focused farm.
Plan
I am a beginning farmer building Roots & Revelation Farmstead, a family-operated farm focused on growing healthy food through sustainable, regenerative, and low-input practices. My family farms together, with our children actively helping care for our garden and laying hens while learning the value of agriculture and stewardship. I completed Forsyth Urban Farm School and the Agribusiness Entrepreneurship Academy. I am seeking 2–10 acres with reliable water to grow vegetables, fruits, herbs, flowers, and eggs for local markets, CSA members, restaurants, and our community while building a lasting partnership with the landowner.

Practices details
I am committed to regenerative and ecological farming practices that improve soil health, protect natural resources, and produce nutritious food for my community. My goal is to build healthy, living soil through compost, cover crops, crop rotation, mulching, and other sustainable methods while minimizing synthetic pesticides and herbicides whenever practical. I believe in responsible stewardship of the land, supporting pollinators and wildlife, conserving water, and raising healthy laying hens in a humane environment. My goal is to leave the land healthier and more productive for future generations than when I first began farming.

Goals details
My goal is to build a diversified family farm producing vegetables, fruits, herbs, flowers, and pasture-raised eggs using regenerative and ecological farming practices. I am committed to improving soil health through composting, cover crops, crop rotation, mulching, and responsible water conservation while minimizing synthetic pesticides and herbicides whenever practical. Farming is a family effort, and my children actively help plant, harvest, and care for our flock while learning stewardship and the value of agriculture. We hope to supply farmers markets, CSA members, restaurants, and our local community with fresh, healthy food while caring for the land and leaving it healthier for future
