Three Forks Artisan Farm
A sanctuary for sustainable, small-batch, and ethically sourced artisanal crafts.
What should I do? Our young billy goat Cricket has gotten his head stuck in the fence almost every day over the last week. One morning he got stuck twice within a half hour. I figure he would learn, but it seems like he’s not. It’s almost like he enjoys it.
I made a new fragrance. It is a woodsy eau de parfum of seven notes composed around patchouli. It has a deep and earthy base with evergreen top notes and euphoric middle notes. I’ve been experimenting with perfume for about three years. I felt it was a natural progression from building candle fragrances. I really enjoy working with scent. It’s kind of cathartic. I like how it affects the mind. It can make you feel alert or calm. It can remind you of specific moments in the past. I like to formulate fragrances that help me connect with a deeper past. Often a primordial forest teeming with gnomes and other mystical creatures. A place many of us have forgotten, but still remains deep within the recesses of our memories. Or maybe I’ve just seen to many movies like Legend, Dark Crystal, Never Ending Story, Lord Of The Rings, Hook, and Disney’s animated version of The Jungle Book… yeah, that’s probably it.
Normally our candles are $12 each. For a limited time, we are offering 2 candles for $20! You can even mix and match fragrances! Just add 2 candles to your cart and the discount will apply automatically!

We really enjoy Longcreek Market in SC. Even though we travel from Georgia, it is only about a 45 minute drive, and it is always worth it. The vibe there is always good and there are vendors with all sorts of awesome stuff! This is the first market we have ever attended and we plan to be there every Sunday, as long as they continue running!
The website is back! I finished working on it late last night. Please check it out! We have some very nice candle fragrances, and we’re starting a weekly newsletter! Link in bio!
I’ve been finding some interesting plants growing in the back of the farm. I’m planning to start cultivating the area and making space for beneficial/useful plants and also planting some fruit trees, native ornamentals, vegetables, and herbs.
This is Thor, one of my Icelandic lamb rams. I have too many rams as it is, so I will be parting with him. But isn’t he handsome? 🐏🐏🐏
The garden is doing very well. It’s about twice as large as last year and I’m planning to add a couple more hugelkultur beds in the near future. So far I’m growing tomatoes, peppers, bush beans, radishes, bush watermelon, lettuce, Japanese egg plant, chard, rocket, and blueberries! That’s just in the garden pictured here. In other areas we also recently planted 2 fig trees, 3 raspberry bushes, a pear tree, and a cherry tree! Very shortly I will be planting Japanese indigo and kenaf!
