HAFE - Nash Farm

Park and regional staff evaluating site conditions at the Nash Farm Grassland Restoration Site in Harpers Ferry National Historical Park.

Nash Farm, located within Harpers Ferry National Historical Park in West Virginia, is a site rich in both agricultural and Civil War history. During the 19th century, the farm was a working agricultural property, contributing to the local economy through crop production and livestock. The farm gained historical significance during the Civil War, particularly in the context of the Battle of Harpers Ferry in 1862, when it was occupied by Union and Confederate forces at different times due to its strategic location near Bolivar Heights. The farm’s fields and structures provided resources and shelter for troops during the conflict.
