Our animals aren't a petting zoo exhibit. They live here, work here, and know this land as well as we do. 


Description: Only Five Tickets Remaining for 10am Tour!

Join us at Winding Stair's Mountain Farm location (not the retail nursery) for a hands-on spring farm tour unlike anything else in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Meet our newest baby lambs, Cocoa Bean, and the fearless Mama Peaches -- the donkey who guards them all -- along with Sylvester the goose, heritage chickens, guinea hens, and our heritage turkey flock. We will also fire up our hand-built, traditional water-powered grain mill -- a working reconstruction built the old way -- grinding the organic corn grits and polenta we sell at our nursery. Two sessions available; both are strictly limited to 20 guests.
Class Basics:
  • Meet our baby lambs, Icelandic sheep, and Mama Peaches the guardian donkey
  • Get up close with Sylvester the goose, heritage chickens, guinea hens, and free-roaming turkeys
  • Watch our traditional 18-foot water-powered mill grind organic corn into grits and polenta
  • Tour our mountain vegetable garden and learn the story of this historic Blue Ridge property
  • Take home a connection to real Appalachian farming traditions -- and maybe a bag of our organic grits
Class Detail: Our tour is at our Mountain Farm Location; 7984 West Old Murphy Rd, Franklin NC.
Instructor Bio: Stacy and Greg are the stewards of Winding Stair- the hands behind the animals, the mill, and the land that makes this tour possible. Together, they make certain that this place feels less like a destination and more like a homecoming.
