From the farm
A first look at Brandon Farm.
About the farm
A beginning, not a finished blueprint.
Brandon Farm is a new five-acre farm at 212 Halleck Road, just outside Morgantown, West Virginia. Its first growth phase is planned for 2027.
The farm will develop deliberately through compact farming, with sustainability and self-reliance helping guide the work. What belongs here—and what the land can sustain—will become clearer through patience, care and the turning of the seasons.
The road ahead
Growing with intention.
2027 will be a first chapter—a time to learn the ground, establish the farm and build an asset that Morgantown, Fairmont, and the surrounding communities can engage with and embrace. Our plan is to give back to the community through donations from profits generated by the farm after covering base farm expenses. In the near future, we hope and expect to hold workshops with local organizations to teach others practical skills.

Our name
In memory of Brandon.
The farm carries the name of Brandon Paul Mason, a native of Tyler County, West Virginia, who passed away unexpectedly in January 2026. Brandon loved the outdoors—hunting, fishing and searching for arrowheads along winding creek beds. He was a musician, a storyteller and someone whose warmth made conversation come easily wherever he went.
He also shared his knowledge generously, teaching many people around him the ways of the land. For his brother Andy, naming the farm after Brandon is a way to carry the way of life and livelihood Brandon valued beyond his Tyler County roots and into the Morgantown, Fairmont, and surrounding communities—building a name that honors his generous spirit and keeps his practical knowledge close to the land and the work ahead.
