We are first generation farmers and transplants to the Southern Illinois area, born and raised in the vast Arizona deserts.
In 2013 we began our commercial farming journey with a small fruit & vegetable CSA, homemade goat milk soaps and UDSA licensed poultry eggs. We keep dairy goats, a Jersey cow, Katadhin hair sheep, heritage turkeys, ducks and chickens. Most recently we've added garden mums to our growing rotation.
Our ideal farm does not feed everyone in the surrounding area but it does provide the most diverse products all produced while complimenting & coexisting with one another.
As you know, farming to feed families is so important for communities. Without these types of farms food has to be produced in mass scale, often with less than ideal conditions and practices. Allowing us to grow your food helps you feed your family and it invests in our future as farmers which in turn invests in you and the community.
Farming, food and communities are all connected and we are honored to have the opportunity to serve the community while living off the land.
Space is limited! We are only taking a few families. $10-$20 a week gets you a basket of fresh chemical free produce. Our CSA season will run for 16 weeks beginning July and running through October.
