WEST KNOLL FARM
Our happy chickens lay healthy eggs!
We are located in the beautiful foothills of the mountains in northern Spartanburg county, upstate South Carolina.
We have a small farm that we like to use to grow vegetables and other foods for our family. We sell the surplus. Chickens and ducks lay a lot of eggs. If we don't sell eggs within a week we take them to our local church food pantry to give back to those in our community that are less fortunate.
We have lived here more than 25 years and find our farm is always in constant change and growth. My husband and I have lived our dream together for more than 32 years.
We have raised horses and dogs for show purposes. Many years later we have gotten past those ventures, as well as following our daughter in her enjoyment of Guinea Pig (Cavy) showing. Poultry showing has become another new past time for me. My first show we only won Best Of Variety with my bantam Mottled Cochin hen but my second show the lovely lady took Best Of Breed, Champion Feather Leg and Reserve Champion in Show!
I really started raising chickens because of egg color but have come to love the breeds for many more reasons. Though the eggs still hold a special appeal to me, the individual birds have made me fall in love with them. We have many pets within the flocks.
This is an easy way to find my driveway on the road.
I would like to thank the Hobby Farmers of the Pee Dee for asking me to give a 3 hour presentation on poultry. I enjoyed being with other poultry lovers and was happy to answer any questions they had for me. It was fun and I made many new friends.
FLASH-- there is another one planned for April 27, 2013 in Florence SC. Please come join us!
