Our Story

Carlton Hill Farm is a one-acre, owner-operated farm in Parkersburg, West Virginia. We built it from scratch with one goal: to feed ourselves and our community without depending on systems that profit from keeping people reliant on them.

We started by growing food for our own table, learning how to provide for ourselves through small-scale, sustainable agriculture. That same independence now allows us to offer fresh, local food to our community at prices that make sense, free from corporate markups and marketing gimmicks.

Carlton Hill Farm also operates our Farm for Better pantry, which distributes free food to local families through a no-barriers, dignity-focused system.

What We Offer

We raise and process our own rabbit, chicken, and quail meat. We collect and sell farm-fresh eggs. We grow seasonal produce and cut wildflowers straight from the field. We also offer nutrient-rich rabbit manure to help gardens thrive. Everything we sell is raised or grown here, handled from start to finish by us, never outsourced.

How We Work

We do the work ourselves from raising and processing to packaging and selling. We keep it all on the farm to avoid middlemen, keep prices fair, and maintain control over quality. Our animals are raised with care, our crops are grown without shortcuts, and nothing leaves the farm without meeting our standards.
