Description: Forest Farming Tour at Banks Mountain Forest Farm - featuring Horse Logging, Silvopasture, and Mushroom Production

Join us for this agroforestry tour at Banks Mountain Forest Farm in Hendersonville. Hurricane Helene wreaked havoc at the 37-acre property last September, with some stands losing 70%. Hear from the farmers who are rewriting their forest management plan, and working with their logging horse team to salvage merchantable timber.

Bob and Stuart Richens will lead a 1-mile walk through their diversified operation, where they raise goats, hogs, chickens, mushrooms, Fraser fir and Norway spruce Christmas trees, boutique timber, and two rare breeds of farm dogs. Learn from their adaptive approach at this unique and beautiful mountaintop farm.

Registration is free but required. Please cancel your reservation if you are unable to attend to allow space for others.

Please contact Mary_Bulan@ncsu.edu with inquiries.

This is part of a series of Agroforestry Tours supported by NC State Extension, the Edwards Mother Earth Foundation, and the ARK Exchange network.

This tour is organized by Jeanine Davis's NC Alternative Crops and Organics Program, Department of Horticultural Science, NC State University, based at the Mountain Horticultural Crops Research and Extension Center in Mills River, NC.
