Bamboo stalks in sunlight — dense green grove

Life on the Farm

20 acres of bamboo, animals, and good people in Wauchula, Florida.

A working farm with heart

Big Mike's isn't just a bamboo nursery — it's a living, breathing farm. Emus wander the property. Bamboo groves tower overhead. Workshops fill the air with the sound of saws and laughter.

Whether you're here to camp under the canopy, pick up plants, or just see what a 20-acre bamboo operation looks like up close, there's always something worth stopping for.
