Old Homeplace Farm

Old Homeplace Farm is operated by the Bowling Family in Oneida. They raise vegetables, fruits, chickens, pigs, cattle, sheep, goats, flowers, and their own honey to sell to local customers. The farm has been in the family since the mid-1800s. Old Homeplace Farm cares about creating resilience and relationships throughout Eastern Kentucky, and hope they can help you feel good about where your food comes from. The community aspect of CSA is something they take extremely seriously and work to foster through on-farm events and their online CSA community (where they share recipes, storage info, and cooking tips). Customers will get to experience the changing of the season along with their farmer. CSA members can also add on other farm shares for flowers, meats, cheese, honey, and coffee.

The history of Old Homeplace Farm in southeastern Kentucky dates back to the mid 1800s. No written record exists of the family’s crops or livestock, but we imagine that it was like most other Kentucky farms of that period: highly diversified and remarkably self-sufficient.
