homesteading & natural living vendors
Meet your homesteading community! We realize it is impossible to dive into all the possible homesteading ventures. That is why we have selected a multitude of homesteading & natural living vendors to support & learn from. From pasture raised meats & natural skin care to herbal tinctures and homesteading services.

Meet the Chef- Jeremy Salig
Raised just outside Orlando, FL to a family where food culture was life, his formative experience was largely the osmosis of a Puerto Rican childhood. His cooking style seeks to blend the flavors and techniques of the cultures that have inspired and nurtured him. He’s held cook, pastry chef, and head chef positions and done various pop-ups in Asheville, Morganton, and around Western NC.
Sourdough breads, GF baked goods & low sugar treats will be available to purchase from the Farm Bakery
