Honeysuckle Hill Farm

Once upon a time, almost everyone in Tennessee knew a lot about farming. But in these times when family farms are fading away, fewer of us know where our food actually comes from. That is particularly true of children. That is where Honeysuckle Hill Farm comes in. It’s a history, dietary and economics lesson all rolled into a fun experience, as Rob Wilds found out when he traveled to Springfield, TN to pay the farm a visit – and he wasn’t the only visitor there that day. Watch this and more episode segments of Nashville Public Television’s Tennessee Crossroads.
