Lively Up Farm grows in Valle Crucis and Matney, NC. Before beginning Lively Up Farm with his wife Natalie, Matt developed the Leola Street Community Garden and also developed the area’s food recovery program. In Watauga County alone tons of non-sellable but still-edible food was discarded annually. But people need to eat! The food recovery program salvages this food and distributes it to the community through organizations like the Hunger & Health coalition. Believing that cooperation and community are the cornerstone to sustainability, Matt brings this attitude into his philosophy of farming.
