A  Bushel And A Peck Farm is a small family run farm located in Butler, TN.  Our farm journey began in 2014 when we  purchased our farm with the goal of being able to provide our family  with the freshest, healthiest, chemical free food possible.  We quickly  realized we loved farming and decided to branch out to selling our  produce in the community as well.  

We are a Certified Naturally Grown Farm offering a large variety of fresh produce, as well as honey and eggs.

I am Rochelle Eisenberger and Cottage In The Mtns is where I make all thing: canvas bags; rag dolls; small tool rolls for crochet hooks, double pointed needles, or sewing notions; square drawstring project bags; needle books for darning, embroidery, or hand-sewing; bound journals; and all natural made from scratch soaps. My sewn items frequently feature embroidery or quilting and are often made from fabrics I've dyed myself.

The handcrafted soaps I make are made with natural oils and plant dyes, clay, and pure essential oils. Some soaps are made with plant based oils and milks, while others use lard, tallow, and goat milk.

When not making things, I enjoy gardening, foraging, taking care of goats, and walking in the woods with my spouse and dogs.
