We produce garlic (several varieties), popcorn, sweetcorn, sunflowers, maple syrup, veggies, fruits, berries, meat, eggs, and anything else we can find room for at the patch.
Levi and I (Jaqie) are just regular people doing regular things, but- we're passionate about homesteading! We live on a little 5-acre plot in Benson, IL and have been here since 2014. We started with a large garden the first year and that's when I fell in love with dirt. I've been gardening and growing things ever since.
Levi on the other hand, has had dirt in his veins since he was born. His family has always farmed and he would have it no other way.
We have a quartet of little men running around trying to work their way up to farmhand. They aren't afraid to get dirty or help out around the farm and tractor-lunches are a favorite.
Over the last decade we have done alot with this little patch of land.. and we are thrilled and humbled to get to share or products with you. We grow things organically and say our prayers for rain when needed. We've always trusted that God will provide for us what we need and we are excited to share those things with you!
Garlic is a long crop. Our varieties are planted in the fall and harvested that next summer! Because it's such a long crop- we take pre-orders for the harvesting season! It goes fast! Place your order now to lock in your goodies!
