Hello! Much more coming to this page soon.
Mountain Moon Farm is a vegan permaculture homestead, regenerative food forest, and licensed nursery that is split between Paw Paw, West Virginia and Linden, Virginia, and is managed by Jen Howk. I am passionate about exploring vegan permaculture. There isn’t much information out there about doing permaculture with vegan methods, so I am discovering new things and making them up as I go along.
Here’s some of what I grow (a partial list!) You can also view and order from the store at https://store.mountainmoonfarm.com. Note that most of the plants listed ship during the dormant season (roughly Nov-March, depending on the plant, so you are generally although not always pre-ordering if you are outside of that season.) If you fancy any of these plants and would like to arrange a donation or barter, please reach out: jen@mountainmoonfarm.com. I am flexible and want people to have access to these amazing “characters,” as my fellow permaculture enthusiast
Live fruit and nut trees and bushes (updated spring of 2026 — some of these are available now, but most are for pre-order for this fall or next spring. If you are interested in any of these for pick up or mail order, please reach out and/or visit https://store.mountainmoonfarm.com)
