Belle Vie Farm, Chapel Hill

About Belle Vie Farm

Belle Vie Farm in Chapel Hill offers families hands-on experiences with farm animals and nature-based activities. Visitors encounter Lionhead bunnies, layer chickens, Welsh Harlequin and Buff Orpington ducks, Pygora goats, Tamworth pigs, Irish Dexter cows, and donkeys. The farm operates summer camp programs and teacher workday camps for children. The StoryWalk experience merges storytelling with nature, placing pages from children's books along a forest hiking path at child height, with hidden poems for adults. Families can walk through the food forest, relax by the SoloStove fire pit with hot cocoa and s'mores, and observe silvopasture techniques where animals graze in the forest to improve soil health. A self-serve farm stand near the entrance sells items including fresh eggs, vegetables, cut flowers, and figs. Located two miles from Carrboro's Weaver Street Market, Belle Vie Farm connects visitors with regenerative agriculture and environmental stewardship through direct engagement with the land and animals.
