Our Story

Barter Farms is located on a humble 5 acre parcel 8 miles outside of Elkin, North Carolina. Our goal is to provide quality food for our family and community using sustainable and regenerative farming techniques.

Hello! We are Matt and Brittany Whiteley, owners of Barter Farms.. Together, as a family, we raise a market garden, layer hens, meat chickens and turkeys, beef, and pork. We raise the majority of what we consume throughout the year and would like to share with our community. Our passions lie in regenerative and sustainable farming, keeping food production local, self sufficiency, educating and encouraging others on how to raise their own food, and helping to contribute to the world that our children will grow up in.
