We are a retired couple who about seven years ago decided to try to reclaim some land and in the process, grow a few things. Our main goal was to beautify the area and as a bonus have some fresh produce. It has grown. We have added more land as well as a World War II vintage barn that has been restored. It now is the centerpiece of our operation. Ours is a small farm with about 1/2 acre of Chandler strawberries as well as about five hundred blackberries (mostly thornless). Additionally we grow blueberries, nectarines, peaches, heirloom tomatoes, vegetables, cut flowers, and herbs. In the fall we enjoy muscadines.

Our labor of love has provided many dividends. Frequently we have people who stop by just to admire the place or to ask what we are doing. Hosting visitors has become an enjoyable sideline. We welcome school groups, families, or any other group that would like to see a small produce farm. We have hosted a field day at our place for the extension service. We have incorporated best practices from the extension service into our operation. Both of us are active in the master gardener program. The DAR presented our farm with a national conservation award. Alabama Living magazine featured our farm in their publication.

Another benefit of our gardening has been the development of our interest in photography. Our goal has been to provide a place of beauty. It only seems fitting to photograph this beauty to share it and in a sense to preserve it. We hope you enjoy our photos on this website.
