Country Garden Greenhouse

Country Garden Greenhouse in Beattyville produces flowers, landscaping plants, and vegetable plants.

Among the Oaks Herb Farm and Sylvatica Forest Farm

They offer an Appalachian Herbal CSA that includes a quarterly box of plant magic made up of earth medicine and seasonal nutrition. It is a collaboration between two herb-loving farmers, Joana (Sylvatica Forest Farm) and Sarah (Among the Oaks Herb Farm), who grow and wildcraft herbs and transform them into the staples of your apothecary and kitchen.

“Each herb share offers 4-6 items steeped in the diversity, lore, and beauty of Appalachian Kentucky. We believe Food is Medicine, and you’ll see that reflected in our offerings. Our hope is that you will come to experience rich connections with the plant world by working with herbs as food and medicine in your daily life.”
