Sassafras Family Farm is an organic farm cultivating, foraging, and handcrafting in the Piedmont of North Carolina. We practice slow, sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship.

 

About Us

Our all-organic production includes fruits and vegetables, fresh and dried herbs, decorative and edible flowers. We make small-batch spice blends, culinary finishing salts, herbal teas, sauces, preserves, and pickles. We also make soap, salves and balms, and other bath and body products.

We draw from sustainability, biodynamics, and regenerative design in order to collaborate with nature. We compost, build our soil, practice slow agriculture, grow native and forgotten plants, maintain a larder, raise animals, and carry out countless other activities that contribute to the health of the systems and cycles on a farm. We envision the farm as ecosystem, as ambit, as a dinner party, as meditation and medicine, as a place for a different way of life.

Our products speak for themselves, because they also speak for the environment in which they were raised -- happy and healthy.

We hope to reconnect people to the earth, to good food, and to supportive communities.

 

“Celebrate the growing and giving of good food as the highest gift and the most revolutionary act.”

— Vandana Shiva
