Bear Creek Farm
Bear Creek Farm is a family-owned farm that has been passed down through generations. The first 300 acres were purchased in 1798, and growing runs deep in the mountain and family farm. The current owners, Mark Page and his family, took over the farm from Mark’s grandparents, Warren and Dorris. Mark grew up visiting his great grandparents, Rabe and Ollie, who originally owned the farm, and he has many fond memories of helping out around the property and listening to his grandfather’s stories. The farm has evolved over the years, but it remains a cherished part of the Acuff family’s history. Today, Bear Creek Farm is a thriving business that produces a variety of crops, including premium, award winning hemp products. In 2022, Bear Creek Grow has won several prestigious awards including 1st Place at High Times Hemp Cup and 1st and 2nd Place Emerald Cup Awards.
