This photographic farmland of Buncombe County is located approximately 11 miles southeast of Asheville, North Carolina. Home to the Hickory Nut Gap Farm, a local, family farm focused on sustainability that has been serving the Asheville area since 1916. You will recognize the name from the grass fed beef selections that adorn menus all over Western North Carolina.
Open fields, surrounded by the rolling Appalachians will have you recalling memories from childhood visits to farms or dreaming of your own spacious land.
Fairview is quiet. A perfect place to start your farm or garden, or have open meadow-like landscape. The area is approximately 16 mile to Lake Lure, making weekend lake escapes convenient.
The area has much to offer:
Enjoy comfort food at The Local Joint – breakfast, including biscuits and gravy, huevos rancheros, and eggs benedict, is served until 3 p.m.! Lunch and dinner are great too – shrimp and grits, reuben sandwiches, burgers, and BBQ salmon, and not to forget, they serve beer, wine, and mimosas!
Hike Bearwallow Mountain Trail – the mountain meadow is filled with widlfowers and perfect for an afternoon picnic.
