Rising Meadow Farm Liberty, NC

Nestled in the rolling hills of central North Carolina, Rising Meadow Farm is 128 acres of fields, meadows, and woodland, multiple springs and a pond stocked for fishing. Birds and wildlife are very much at home in this natural environment.

Begun in 1993 as an excuse to leave the stress of city living behind, our family decided to turn a hobby into a working sheep farm. Trying to preserve the feeling and character of this beautiful farm has been a labor of love.
