Welcome to Guildbrook Farm

Guildbrook Farm is a modern homestead in the foothills of Appalachia. We take our audience along on a journey to become more self-reliant by growing our own organic produce, raising animals for dairy and eggs, preparing food for long-term storage, and building off the grid renewable energy systems. In 2017, we moved to raw land where we are building a debt-free energy efficient and disaster resistant ICF mountain home. Join us as we learn to live a simple, sustainable lifestyle.

Appalachian Victory Garden: July Vegetable Harvest

Appalachian Victory Garden: July Vegetable Harvest

It's mid July. The temps are in the high nineties and the bugs are here in droves. Despite the insects we've had a good amount of rain this year to help reduce the amount of watering we have had to do, and the victory garden is producing beautifully! We've been harvesting beans, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, cucumbers, zucchini and carrots. Soon the potatoes and beets will be here and we can start planning the fall crop.
