Welcome to Sprouting Farms
Sprouting Farms is a four-season non-profit farm and an education and resource center located in Summers County, WV. We believe that long-lasting impact is created by training new farmers in quality and sustainable production techniques, and by providing shared resources and educational opportunities to the whole farm community.
Our programs provide farmers with sound business management and production skills, hands-on apprenticeship and mentorship, and the land and resources necessary to launch and refine their farm businesses.
If you are looking for a way to purchase local food, you can find wholesale and retail options for buying local farmers' produce/products through the Turnrow Appalachian Farm Collective. If you are a farmer in need of a market for your products, Turnrow is there to help you as well. You can learn more about them on their website at turnrowfarms.org
