Haystack Farm is a historic home and farm located near Oak Grove, Surry County, North Carolina. The farmhouse was built about 1885, and is a two-story, three-bay, gable roofed frame dwelling with a two-story rear ell. It has a full-width, hip roofed front porch and Italianate style design elements. Also on the property are the contributing gambrel-roof livestock barn, a board-and-batten frame packhouse, and a half-dovetail plank apple drying shed. The house was built by Christopher Wren Bunker, son of Chang and nephew of Eng Bunker.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
