At Carlton Hill Farm, we’ve chosen to grow and thrive on a single acre of land. Some might wonder: Why take on the challenge of farming small? For us, it’s not just about the land—it’s about the impact, the community, and proving that even a modest space can create something extraordinary.

The farm doesn't stop in the winter. We have animals to care for, projects to prepare us for the next season, and let's face it, does anyone with a Black Lab ever get a lazy day indoors? 

We’re excited to add a new garden area next Spring. Stick season slows us down enough to give us time to dream about what we want to grow. Depending on your growing zone, planting season can sneak up quick. Dedicating time in December and early January to plan ensures you'll have plenty of time to buy seeds and prep for sowing indoors.

In a world increasingly dominated by sprawling cities, concrete jungles, Zenith televisions, and Nintendo Power Glove ;) finding ways to live sustainably is more crucial than ever. Our family has embarked on a journey to create a small but thriving farm on just one acre of land, a testament to the fact that sustainable living can be achieved even on a modest scale.

Why 1 Acre is Enough:

One might think that a single acre wouldn't be enough for a farm, but we believe it's the perfect size.

In a world grappling with climate change and the unsustainable practices of large-scale animal agriculture, rabbit meat is emerging as a compelling and delicious solution. Often overlooked, rabbits offer a sustainable protein source with a surprisingly low environmental footprint and a rich history of culinary enjoyment.
