This tour will focus on livestock production in the Piedmont of North Carolina. The first stop will be Rising Meadow Farm. This unique farm is dedicated to the preservation of heritage breeds of both meat and wool sheep. Our second stop will be Kingsmill Dairy, a state of the art dairy that milks 1200 cows. At lunch, we will visit Carolina Stockyards. Next up will be New Hope Farm, a purebred Charolais operation that direct markets their own brand of “Charlean” beef. Our final stop will be Chestnut Hill Farm. Chestnut Hill Farm is a cattle and poultry farm that is dedicated to sustainability. Please make plans to join us!
