Welcome to our farm
As a local family farm, we proudly embrace the small acreage bio-intensive farming movement. In our first year, we cultivated over 20 vegetable varieties, with plans to expand our offerings to include more fruits in the future. With a strong commitment to organic growing methods, we strive to provide our customers with the highest quality and safest produce available.

Meet the farmers
In 2022, our family owned farm officially began its operations, marking its first year in existence. The farm is ran by father Todd, son Jon, and their wives, Cindy and Brittany. The dream of starting the business and the desire for growth has been ingrained in the family for years prior. Todd spent 20 years working in the horticulture industry after college, and his son, Jon, has followed a similar career path.
Our mission is to provide nutritious and delicious food to our community while promoting self-sufficiency through small-scale farming. We aim to eliminate chemical fertilizers and enhance the land's fertility, making it a valuable resource for future generations.

We grow our produce on 50-foot raised beds utilizing compost from a trusted source. Our bio-intensive and organic practices involve tight spacing, natural fertilizers like alfalfa meal and chicken manure pellets, and bed turnover throughout the season. These practices continuously enhance the health of our soils.
We prioritize organic growing practices to manage pest pressure, using insect netting when necessary, while weed control is achieved through the use of black plastic coverings between plantings.
Our produce undergoes a thorough cleaning process in our wash station, including bubbling, spinning, and drying for greens, as well as dipping and spraying for roots before storage in refrigerators.
