The Upper Mountain Research Station, established in 1944 and located in Ashe County, North Carolina, spans 454 acres at an elevation exceeding 3,200 feet. This unique facility specializes in agricultural research, producing a variety of crops including forage for livestock, tobacco, small grains, and Christmas trees, while also serving as the only site in the U.S. with a planted range-wide seed source of the Carolina Hemlock.

In addition to its research initiatives, the station actively engages with the local community through educational tours, workshops, and support for food assistance programs. It also plays a vital role during emergencies, providing aid during natural disasters and hosting events such as Farm Safety Day for local students.
