Introduction

An educational site and working farm located just outside Asheville, NC, the SAHC Community Farm provides a continually evolving home for conservation projects and agricultural production. The 140-acre Community Farm started with the generous donation of just over 100 acres of farmland in 2010. Now, the site hosts an innovative Farm Incubator Program, Education Center, and more, providing a nationally recognized model for environmentally-friendly land management and productive agriculture.
