Everything's Peachy in the GoE
Welcome to our sanctuary!
Discover Our Orchard
The Garden of Eden Orchard is a fruit orchard and pollinator sanctuary in Eden, NC. Our land is home to over 25 peach trees, wildflower corridors, Monarch milkweed plantings, forest restoration, and a chemical-free approach to soil, water, and wildlife stewardship.
We are currently developing a semi-sunken greenhouse, rain-catchment irrigation system, and expanded pollinator habitat. Seedlings, pollinator plants, and educational content coming soon!
The land has a gentle north-to-south slope, which the orchard design uses for gravity-fed irrigation, rainwater distribution, and erosion control. Four birdhouses positioned at the orchard corners provide habitat for insect-controlling birds and contribute to natural pest management.
Adjoining the orchard is a mixed hardwood woodland area where previous owners left buried debri. Ongoing work includes forest cleanup, removal of hazardous material, and restoration of native habitat, improving wildlife shelter and long-term ecological function. The long-term vision is to develop a resilient, sustainable orchard and pollinator sanctuary that provides fruit, habitat, education , and year-round ecological stewardship - while restoring and enhancing previously degraded land.
