About the Farm

Background

Bloom and Bark LLC is run by Kim and self-taught glass blower Tim, who, along with their rescued animals, have created a unique blend of farming and glass blowing. The farm is home to a Hot Shop and Open Air Studio where Tim creates glass art, which is displayed alongside other local artists' works in the Local Artisan Market.

Practices

Using only organic methods, the farm cultivates a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, ensuring that the land is treated with care and respect.

The Rest

Visitors can enjoy glass blowing demonstrations, take classes to learn the art, and explore the Local Artisan Market. The farm also hosts seasonal events such as the Historic Hills Scenic Byway Spring Shop About, Yuletides on the Farm, and the J40 Farm Crawl.
