Homestead Farm Tours @ Great Escape Farms

The Farm

Great Escape Farms is a small family farm located just outside Romney, WV, USA.  We have been in business since 2015 and sell unique edible plants, produce YouTube videos on gardening and homesteading, and are setting up as a Permaculture/regenerative agriculture showcase farm. 

We purchased a farm in Romney, WV and turned it into a regenerative nursery specializing in edible perennial plants, trees and shrubs. Our nursery runs entirely on collected rainwater, we use solar electric to keep the chicken’s water from freezing and to aerate the pond, and earthworks to conserve and hold water on the land.

Homestead Farm Tours is our Marketing arm of Great Escape Farms. We provide farm tours and teach courses on what we do on the farm.  We teach everything from plant propagation to the business practices of running a nursery business, to the details of rainwater harvesting and how to make biochar and compost.  We are adding new courses all the time.   

Some of the other draws to the farm are the rainwater harvest systems, and permaculture / regenerative practices in place and planned.  We teach people things like how to protect plants from deer and how to slow down water and hold it on the land after a fast-moving thunderstorm.  Another big topic of interest is how to companion plant and design growing areas to maximize production while reducing external inputs and chemicals.

If you are local you can pick up plants at the farm. Here is our plant list: https://greatescapefarms.com/plants-for-sale-at-great-escape-nursery/.
