The Mission

In Celebration of Agriculture & The Arts​

We gather every year to share music, local food, and land-based skills in the belief that this is the foundation for a culture that cares for it’s people and the ecosystem.



Mountain Run Farm

Mountain Run Farm, located in Sedalia, VA, is a family farm on a path of healing land and people. The farm produces grass-only beef, lamb, pastured pork, eggs, vegetables, orchard crops, medicinal herbs and an abundance of wild food, wildlife, and habitat. The farm is a living and working example of regenerative agriculture and the power that humans have to work with the land, plants, and animals to build topsoil, steward watersheds, and restore ecological diversity.
