Our farm is our life. We invite you to come experience the flavor of our farm! You won't see a lot of big machinery, but we do have lots of pigs that we love to show off. Stay to pick some berries for your trip home!

We have a sustainable farm -- we use the lowest amount of outside inputs as possible. We rely on our bees, sunshine and Ohio rains to help our crops.

We handpick all our crops. Machines can harm fruits and vegetables. We wait until the berries and other crops are at the peak of ripeness then carefully handpick them so the flavor and goodness can be enjoyed by you.

The farm work is hard, but enjoyed by our family year-round. We spend sunny winter days pruning and cleaning out the blackberries and raspberries. In late winter we are busy with baby pigs and planning for spring to come. In winter we start planting seeds in the greenhouse to have plants ready to transplant when the soil is warm.

Early spring is time to prepare the strawberry fields. We also prepare the greenhouse tomatoes to grow and produce juicy June tomatoes. We plant peas for June harvest, also. Flowers are also planted to bloom all summer.

Summer is a wonderful time to visit the farm and taste the wonderful goodness of freshly grown fuits and vegetables hand-picked at the peak of ripeness. June is when we start harvesting and different crops become ripe all the way until October.

Visit us and experience the farm!

We are closed for the season and will open on Mother's Day 2010.
