Mount Gilead Farm

French Broad Creamery

“Mount Gilead Farm is a family-owned farm in the mountains of western North Carolina, only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville. We are the third owners of what started 80 years ago as a cow dairy, and are presently in the process of converting it to a goat dairy and cheesemaking business. Visitors are welcome at Mt. Gilead Farm, where we emphasize the ‘agricultural’ part of agritourism. Depending on the season, you can play with baby goats, watch goats being milked and cheese being made, harvest asparagus and strawberries, see what is involved in making hay, or gather peaches, apples and pears.“ (From Mt. Gilead Website)
