Our Story

 

Terramonga Farms began when Joe and Elaina Sabbag moved to Fairview, North Carolina in 2018 with a vision to build a farm that respects the land and the community around it. Drawing on Joe’s farming experience in Georgia, they started with vegetables, then added sheep in 2020, followed by chickens, pigs, and cattle. Over time, the farm grew supported by a dedicated team who share their commitment to working with the land.

In 2024, Joe and Elaina purchased Troyer’s Country Amish Blatz, a beloved roadside store known for its sandwiches and community spirit, finalizing the sale shortly after Hurricane Helene struck. A few months later, the store reopened as Terramonga Deli & Provisions. The new chapter preserved Troyer’s legacy while introducing Terramonga’s farm-grown produce, meats, eggs, lamb, baked goods, and pantry staples.

Seasonal boxes filled with the best of the farm are also available throughout the year, bringing fresh, thoughtfully raised food directly to local tables. Together, the farm, the deli, and the team have created a place where good food, community, and the land come together.

 

Livestock

 

Our cattle, sheep, chickens, and pigs live like kings and queens, and treated with the kind of respect most folks reserve for dinner guests. They roam free, chew cud, and hold secret meetings beneath poplar trees (or so we suspect).

 

Vegetables

 

The vegetables are coaxed from the earth, using a blend of grandma’s wisdom and modern technology.  We make sure the living soils are fed right by using credible organic material (never synthetics or ‘cides’) in our fields and greenhouse.  Sure, we use tech when it makes sense but its the kind of science that keeps our boots muddy and our souls proud.
