Bunkhouse at foot of Mountains at MH logging camp

We are located in a small mountain farming community in East Tennessee. A place where men were raised to be a jack of all trades and their women folk could make any material useful with a sewing needle and make a savory supper out of what was growing or caught, fished, or hunted. Clearing lands for pasture and lumber was a necessity that became common place on the early American farm. It is understandable the draw people have to the Mountains, being seven and nine generation mountain peoples. Inviting folks to MH Farm is a personal matter. The value placed on this community, it’s peace and serenity, cannot be overemphasized. MH Farm is inviting you and your family to get a close up look at how Mountain peoples lived and worked.
