Natural Well (Hot Springs), Virginia

Up-On-The-Hill Farm is the legacy of generations of the family's farmers in the Natural Well area of Alleghany County. Nestled on the top of a ridge, surrounded by beautiful mountain scenery, the farm is a prime example of minimal impact farming of produce for locals to enjoy year-round. The owners, both active members of the Certified Master Gardeners of the Alleghany Highlands, have successfully combined their years of experience to produce vegetables that exemplify what naturally-grown really means. Local consumers and restaurants enjoy the finest of all kinds of produce and herbs grown on our farm, from asparagus to zucchini and everything in between - all fresh, pesticide- and chemical-free, and all from heirloom seeds. Also producers of beef, pork, turkey jerky, and "Family Bacon" cured pork loins in the farm's Commonwealth of Virginia certified kitchen. "Absolutely the BEST beef jerky and peanut brittle I have EVER tasted!!! Since I live in NC, I will definitely be trying to get John and Deb to mail me some more in the very near future!!! Keep up the good work!" Jim C., Raleigh, NC. The family recipe cured pork loins have become a favorite of many customers in the Alleghany Highlands. "The cured pork is absolutely wonderful! That is the way meat is supposed to taste. I told my husband that we should eat some of that every week.", says Nancy C. of Covington, VA. Secret recipe Virginia peanuts-based brittle made on the farm is a highly sought after treat in this area. "Just back from the doctor with my 87 year old mom. Something is wrong with her jaw. She could only eat soup for lunch. She said it hurt too bad to even eat tuna salad. However, when we got home she managed to eat a piece of your peanut brittle!!!! How is that for a recommendation?! My oldest daughter also liked it. She said, "I'm not crazy about peanut brittle but I like that." Kate W., Harrisonburg, VA. As a matter of interest, the current family homestead, built over a five-year period between 1795 and 1800 (and still occupied by family members), is the oldest brick structure still standing in Alleghany County.
