Wood Farm

Cherokee County

Acreage: 251

Year: 2021 and 2022

The Wood Family Farm is a working farm in Cherokee County. Visible from Nantahala National Forest lands in the Snowbird and Valley River mountains, more than 81% of the soil is considered Prime Farmland Soil. The conservation project consisted of three separate easements funded through North Carolina ADFP Trust fund grants, as well as the Cherokee Preservation Foundation, The Conservation Trust for North Carolina, one private donor, and other unrestricted donations.

The Wood Family has been farming the land in the Hiwassee River Valley since the early 1900s.
