At New Beginnings Historic Farm you have at your fingertips, opportunities for spiritual and physical restoration, with adventures around every corner. The farm dates back to the 1900's where the locals came to purchase their milk, cheese, and meat. Currently owned by John and Sheri Crenshaw who have restored it back to its historical roots as a working farm. History and heritage call us to a simpler time. Our heart is gathering community to learn about food, farming, and health. Our farm focuses on heirloom varieties, apothecary herbs, heritage breed animals and homesteading. Historic home and grounds can be rented out for weddings, birthday celebrations, and events.
