About us

Crossville Acres is a family affair.

What started as a 8year old boys dream has grown into an established farm business – and it’s all because God did it. He placed the desire to farm on the young heart of Pete Burns. He knew that this was where God was leading him. As he grew and apprenticed at Polyface Farm in Virginia he came back to his family land in Pennsylvania and ran his family farm business for 14 years. Along came the blessing of a wife and a bustling household of 5 young men they bore. The Lord moved their family to Tennessee in 2019 and to the Cumberland Plateau – Crossville- in 2021. We’ve raised over 50,000 chickens, and loads more. We now milk 5 cows, oodles of chickens, turkeys, have an on farm butcher shop, on farm store, and newly opening in April 2025, an in town Meat Market. We are thrilled to see where God leads us next. He is always faithful.
