We grow about 7 acres of Stellar Certified Organic vegetables, fruits, and flowers which are sold at the Rockford and Ada Farmer's Market, through our CSA, and to local restaurants. Everything on the farm is grown using organic and biodynamic practices. Our farm respects and preserve the environment, with a focus on rebuilding top soil and preserving biodiversity. This season we are growing over 60 different crops with over 150 different varieties. Our farm hosts volunteers through WWOOF, Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms. In this program, we accept volunteers from near and far, exchanging room, board, and education for help in the fields. More details on our growing practices, CSA, and volunteer opportunities can be found on our website.
