General Farm Description: Bibb Forest Farm is a for-profit, organic farm that prioritizes excellent goods, soil health, and regeneration. We have been growing market gardens since 2018. We currently grow a wide range of vegetables, herbs, cut flowers, raise honeybees and grass-fed beef and lamb. In addition, we simulate wild mushrooms growing on logs while managing 150 acres of woods regeneratively with conservation objectives. We participate in a weekly online farmers market, attend one Saturday farmers market, and sell on our own website.
