Do you ever wish that you could lessen your footprint on the earth? Yes, you need food, but wouldn't it be good to know that it was grown or raised in harmony with nature rather than in a sterile field or filthy feed lot?
Our philosophy of farming is to live in harmony with nature. We are blessed to live on nearly 400 acres of rolling glacial till, which is dotted with wetlands and hills, having rolling meadows alternating with woods.

We specialize in providing a large variety of garden produce to local residents. Currently we have seedlings of our own variety of heirloom tomatoes in our windowsill.
