Long Hungry Creek Farm is one of the oldest (1974) and largest (250 acres) organic farms in Tennessee.
The goal of the Long Hungry Creek Farm is to grow the highest quality farm products possible, while enjoyably developing an economically viable, aesthetically pleasing and humus-rich farm which remains relatively independent regarding its own feed and fertilizer needs. We’d like to continue researching ways to do this and to demonstrate and promote the idea that such a farm is a valuable and beneficial addition to the landscape and atmosphere of the 21st century.
In addition to farming and writing, Jeff Poppen, the Barefoot Farmer, is currently doing an organic farming series for the local Nashville PBS affiliate. Jeff is available for consultation to aspiring organic and biodynamic farmers. He is especially interested in getting small farmers and gardeners started in their own healthy food production.
