Whispering Dove Ranch is truly an Agri-Cultural Experience! Authentic working livestock ranch and Apiary. Don't know what an Apiary is? Call us and find out! Various farm animals are raised in their natural environment. Others interested in sustainable agriculture and renewable resources will find our high quality products worth the drive.

We are not a "commercial" farm, but we are a working, educational farm. Tours are not available at this time. We have been featured in several NC publications, Farm Bureau Magazine local newspaper articles, blogs and Diane Daniel's book "Farm Fresh North Carolina."

Explore this source of homegrown, pasture-raised meats, country eggs and pure, raw honey. (more...)
