Mountain Ridge Top Garden - West Meadow and Woods

Description

The Mountain Ridge Top Garden West Meadow and Woods is found in the mountainous region of Buncombe County NC.    This property was acquired in 2013. Approximately half of that 0.46 acre parcel was woods and the other half pasture. Since we have had this parcel, we have allowed the pasture portion to begin reverting back to woodlands. We planted some trees, mostly beech and deciduous magnolias, and shrubs. But most of the trees in the former pasture are volunteers, mostly oaks, with some black gum, tulip poplar, persimmon, hickory, and sourwood.
