About Us

Green Door Gourmet is a unique farm to fork venture that produces local artisan foods and plants in a farm-cooperative community setting.

Sylvia Harrelson Ganier, the farm operator, brings years of farm and restaurant experience as well as a passion for food and education. Her background of growing up on a dairy farm in North Carolina melds with her many years in the restaurant business, including being chef and owner of her former Nashville based establishment, CIBO. Personal attention to both product and patron is the main focus of the high quality experience from Green Door Gourmet.

Green Door Gourmet is located within Hidden Valley Farm on River Road in Nashville, TN, less than 2 miles west of Interstate 40, and less than 10 minutes from downtown Nashville. Our close proximity to places such as Nashville West, Walmart, and Lowes provides ease of access for customers who crave experiencing the best of local fare but still in the city limits.

Hidden Valley Farm also serves as the perfect spot for agri-tourism and special farm events. We have produced events from small picnics to receptions up to a BBQ for 1000!

Green Door Gourmet grows up to 80 varieties of herbs and flowers, and a wide assortment of fresh produce produced using natural methods which follow an organic holistic model. We harvest as close to customer-scheduled pick up as possible in order to maintain the integrity of our product. We do not sell anything that does not pass our own "taste tests."

With a terrific crew helping out on the farm this year, the feeling of community will be one of the first things a customer will note when making a visit.
