Hidden away in the Blue Ridge Mountains: East Fork Farm, Marshall, North Carolina

Taking on a farm as a second career always seems like a good idea from afar, especially if the farm is in North Carolina and you are in New York. Well, maybe that isn’t quite fair. John and Mina Piraino were looking for a slower, more sustainable lifestyle as empty nesters, and the thought of working outside appealed to John, a mechanical engineer by training. Two of their children already lived in Greenville SC, and it felt like everyone in the family was moving south.

Farm Life Agritourism

By Faith Farm in Joelton, Tennessee

By Faith Farm is sited on land that has been farmed since the early 1800s – primarily cattle, tobacco, and vegetables. When the 96-acre farm was bought in 2011 by the Birckheads, it had become fallow, the buildings abandoned, the fields and forests left unattended. For the suburban couple, with no experience in farming (she was an accountant and he was a doctor), this was truly a calling with a mission.
