About Cluster Flock Farm
As a 501(c)(3) organization, we are dedicated to education for the preservation and propagation of heritage and endangered species of plants and animals. Fostering environments which enable different species to thrive is necessary to offset the diminishing organic ecosystems which have supported varied and vibrant flora and fauna and are becoming increasingly threatened.
Through active partnerships, our goal is to build a foundational platform to educate others on beneficial and sustainable methods. Traditionally known as animal and land husbandry, we meld proven methods and innovation in order to encourage and maintain balance in the natural surroundings.
Cluster Flock Farm was born in our hearts long before we found the "perfect" place. We spent years praying and looking and waiting. Then praying and waiting and looking some more - for eight years. And then... there it was. In true fashion, God had delivered above and beyond anything we had imagined. We were overwhelmed with the scope and the beauty of it!
Also in true fashion, "to whom much is given, much shall be required" delivered above and beyond anything we had imagined. The house was in a serious state of disrepair and there wasn't actually anything of a working farm to speak of. It has been uphill all the way! But, the vision we had pulled us through the journey of the next several years; though, we still have a ways to go.
So, here in Bowdon, Georgia, in the "foothills of the foothills" of the Appalachians, we've been charged with the management of lakes and streams, woods and pastures, and helping the animals to thrive in their natural environment. There isn't a lot of free time, especially in the spring and summer. But we are living life to the fullest in a prime location to establish a farm teeming with life and ripe for opportunity!
We welcome you to visit us and support the community work we are doing here. We look forward to seeing you soon!

We're Striving for Zero Negative Impact
At Cluster Flock Farm, we're striving to have zero negative impact on our environment. That includes strategically planning for a positive environmental impact on the soil, air, water, plants, animals and everything in between. That's a tall order!
We're accomplishing this commitment by developing and using innovative techniques and technologies to create a positive, ethical, renewable and duplicatable effect on our local biome. We're also SHARING the methods we've developed with other farmers around us. By serving our fellow community, we're having a much farther reach than just our farm!
Our Mission and Vision:
At Cluster Flock Farm, we are committed to preserving heritage and heirloom species through sustainable and ethical methods. We are passionate about providing educational experiences to our students and the public, offering tours, classes, and workshops.
We believe that education about the importance of sustainable and ethical farming practices is the key to preserving our environment and protecting our future. We invite everyone to come join us and learn more about the world of sustainable farming and how you can contribute.

Give Today!
Our heart is to help the people and community around us, whether that's giving seeds or education. But of course, animals and feed and fences, etc., require funds and time and equipment. If you can donate anything that a farm needs - email us today. Monetary funds are always appreciated as well.
