Nichols Farm and Orchard is a local, sustainable, family farm specializing in variety. Founded in 1978 as a hobby farm serving a handful of chicagoland farmers markets. Today we grow over 1000 cultivars of fruits and vegetables on our 250 acre farm and serv 14 local markets and many restaurants.

Our growing practices are certified sustainable through Food alliance. Many crops we grow are certifiably organic, while we use IPM management on our more difficult crops such as apples.

We grow extensive heirloom varieties of apples, tomatoes, and more. Our products are available at Farmers markets, Restaurants, and through our CSA
