Internship information
General Farm Description: Chilly Hollow Farm is a diversified 13 acre, family-run farm located just outside Berryville, Virginia. We grow chemical-free vegetables & raise pastured laying hens. We use sustainable and regenerative practices and operate a self-serve on-farm store that's open year-round. In addition to our own production, we partner with several local farms to offer pasture-raised meats, cheeses, baked goods, and value-added products to our community in our farm store. We also offer CSA shares in both the summer and fall seasons (serving ~150 families) and attend a weekly local farmer's market May through October. Our goal is to produce high-quality food, support other local farms, and run a realistic, efficient farm business that can sustain both the land and the people working it.
