  • C.A. & J. Farm is an off-grid capable Solar, Medicinal Herb Farm, established in 1997. Located in beautiful Mathews County, VA, only 15-20 minutes from Gloucester, Main Street.  
  • We are open to the Public March 15th - Dec. 15th, Thurs., Fri. & Sat. 10:30am-6pm.  We supply our regular egg customers year round.
  • Jack & Jill: our two 5 year old Great Pyrenees, are very gentle and loving...most of the time, but sometimes they are shy about unfamiliar people entering their acre.  They are not house dogs, but working farm dogs performing their duty, which they take very seriously.  Other animals, including dogs, are viewed as a threat, so you cannot bring your dog into their acre to "play" with J&J.  They protect their acre.  We will always enter the acre with you.  It is best to enter with us and pay J&J no attention.  Give them a chance to get used to you, then they will usually come to you to be loved on.  They are very good farm dogs and love kids, but again....need to take it slow.  You will see some beautiful, strong, smart dogs at work! Thank you for understanding!
