FARM DIVERSITY
Vegetables grown under a shade cover.
Buncombe County is home to a variety of farms, from tiny productive spaces to large acreage. Agricultural enterprises are equally varied, ranging from cattle farms and livestock operations to mixed vegetable farms, herb and flower farms, greenhouse facilities, and an endless blend of crop diversity. Farms are located in every community, from our beautiful rural areas to the vibrant city hub of Asheville where crops are grown in intensively managed plots within city limits. Every small farm is unique in topography, land resources, and the products they raise and sell.
A field of lush and healthy forages for livestock.
The Small Farms Program for Buncombe County offers technical support for learning specific aspects of crop production, assessing properties for agricultural potential, and starting a farm business.
