Gladheart Farm
Gladheart Farms is a 18.5 acre Certified Organic Farm located just minutes from the cultural mecca of downtown Asheville, NC. At its purchase, Gladheart Farms was a prime development property, but was bought and turned back into agricultural use. With a growing trend away from small farms coupled with unstable energy prices, Gladheart Farms felt it was important to preserve one of the most basic foundation stones in our society - local food. Because of this belief, this small urban farm is growing in a sustainable direction. All equipment and greenhouses are powered by bio- diesel which is made from waste vegetable oil and all produce is sold local, providing the consumer with the freshest quality without the unnecessary high transportation costs.

26 weeks of fresh certified organic produce ranging from lettuce to winter squash. We grow a wide variety of vegetables and will only supply what is coming in that week. One full share feeds a family of four with fresh produce.
