Celeste Farms is a 4.3-acre regenerative farm located just east of city limits in Varina, VA. It provides organically grown, diversified fruits, herbs, and vegetables to local food champions including Ellwood Thompson’s, Leafy Lanes, and Goatocado. Celeste Farms also donates produce to Food Not Bombs and RVA Community Fridges.

A band of tinkerers, Big Idea thinkers, foraged food wizards, and mad scientist farmers, Celeste Farms was founded on a true passion for sharing knowledge and expanding skill sets. In addition to growing vegetables, it has a range of other projects in the works; the spot cooks up its own compost, is a steward to a variety of creatures (chickens, worms, and bees), and is establishing wildflower meadows throughout the property to house native flora, fauna, and pollinators. 

Celeste Farms likes to think of its farm as a living project, one where it’s always learning ways to leave a lighter environmental footprint and is ever-evolving with the efforts and interests of the team. The farm strives to become a hub for artisans, chefs, and farmers to further explore and practice their crafts while earning a living wage.
