Three Creeks Farm is a small farm in middle Tennessee, just west of Nashville. We have a large variety of plants and animals and are often adding to our menagerie!
We currently have Icelandic and Shetland sheep, Angora goats, Tennessee Fainting Goats, Dwarf Nigerian goats, Pygmy goats and various breeds of Bantam chickens. We also grow dye plants, herbs, gourmet garlic, and a variety of flowers.
We offer farm tours and demonstrations for groups and school trips on a wide range of subjects such as blacksmithing, handspinning, shearing, homesteading, and more.

Our Annual Events
Middle Tennessee Fiber Festival
Three Creeks Farm puts on the Middle Tennessee Fiber Festival every year on the Friday and Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend.
Vendors come from around the country and classes and workshops include felting, mixed media fiber art, fiber preparation, knitting, spinning, and weaving.
Spinning wheels, fleeces, felting supplies, and much more are on sale each year; the Fiber Festival Facebook page can also be found here.
Dye Day
Our Annual Dye day will be Saturday September 28 from 10 am until 4 pm or the last person leaves. We have agonized over this. My son and daughter-in-law’s baby is due Sept 29, but this is the only weekend we have available except the weekend of SAFF, and I didn’t want to plan something then.
Bring your ready to dye yarn or wool, dye pots if you have them and a sense of adventure. I will have Earthues natural dyes for sale as well as mordants, wool and un-dyed yarn. We do not charge anything, but do ask for donations to cover the cost of propane. We will have a meal about noon, so bring a dish or desert to add. Wear weather appropriate old clothes that you don’t mind getting dye on.
