Crabtree Farms
Chattanooga, Tennessee
Crabtree Farms serves the Chattanooga community as a sustainable teaching farm and agricultural resource. The core tenants of our work are: GROW fresh fruit, vegetables, herbs, flowers, and garden seedlings for markets and restaurants in the Chattanooga area. EDUCATE children, and families from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds on the practice of sustainable farming and the benefits of local, healthy food. CONNECT people, nature, and place in a beautiful farm setting, and to help people reconnect with the land.
