Raccoon Forks Farms

At Raccoon Forks Farms, we raise vegetables, chicken, and eggs - all using only chemical-free, sustainable farming and animal husbandry practices. We also make wonderful soap that contains our own eggs! We sell our produce, eggs, chicken, and soap through our CSA shares, through our web site, and to a number of local groceries, coops, restaurants, and caterers.

Our Vegetables

Over the course of the season, you can expect a wide variety of vegetables in your CSA box, such as salad greens, tomatoes, spinach, broccoli, cucumbers, garlic, and eggplant. Fresh herbs, like cilantro and basil. Staples, like green beans, carrots, onions, cabbage, and potatoes. And specialty vegetables such as okra, Swiss chard, fennel, kohlrabi, and leeks! Each year, we add new items and change up our selection.

Our Chickens

We believe sunshine, grass beneath their feet, and the ability to forage keep our chickens happy and healthy. In return, they give us rich, delicious brown eggs and the best-tasting meat! During the day, our flocks roam at will in large pastures; at night, they choose their own roosting spots inside barns and sheds, where they're safe from predators. They are always cage-free! In addition to whatever they forage, to ensure proper nutrition, our chickens also have access to a vegetarian supplemental diet.

Sustainability

We take pride in farming sustainably. We don't use any chemicals at the Farms, and antibiotics/other medications are used only if a chicken is ill (and are administered only to that bird). We improve our soil quality and replenish nutrients with cover crops and compost. We reuse, recycle, and compost just about everything!
