Nestled in the beautiful countryside of Mentone, Indiana, you’ll find where we grow our fresh, locally grown, nutrient, dense produce on our family’s farm. We strive to raise the best quality product as possible on our 3/4 acre produce plot. Our produce starts from seed and is grown without synthetic pesticides and herbicides. We utilize regenerative practices and rotate our crops to ensure our soil stays well-balanced and remains sustainable for future generations. We have invested in a greenhouse, a cooler and post harvest storage building to ensure you are getting the freshest produce we can provide. 

Upcoming Programs –

• 9/22 – Black Pine Animal Sanctuary – Trish Nichols
