Luna Farms Home & Land Development is a licensed general contractor and land development company serving Asheville, Waynesville, Canton, Clyde, Candler, and surrounding areas in Western North Carolina. We specialize in transforming raw or overgrown land into build-ready property — and guiding projects all the way through new home construction. We partner with landowners, homeowners, and developers to prepare sites and manage residential building projects safely, efficiently, and with care for the land.

Our founder, Benny Essig, is a trained arborist and experienced general contractor with years of hands-on expertise in land clearing, grading, excavation, and site preparation. What began as a tree service has grown into a full-service operation offering both land development and general contracting services, including new home construction, site prep, and project management. From selective tree removal and road grading to culvert installation, foundations, and retaining walls, we handle every phase with precision.

We are especially passionate about the early stages of construction — where raw land becomes the foundation for a home. As a general contractor and site development specialist, we ensure your project starts right and stays on track. From clearing and shaping the land to coordinating builds and preparing foundations, we focus on doing the work right the first time so everything that follows is built on solid ground.

Luna Farms works both independently and as a full-service general contractor, managing trusted subcontractors for projects of all sizes. Whether you need land clearing, site preparation, or a contractor to oversee your home build from start to finish, we bring the same level of care, communication, and craftsmanship to every project.
