OUR FARM
Our small acreage farm started as a homestead over a dozen years ago. In 2024, we are going into our third year as a farm business with several enterprises:
- Native Plant Nursery
- Permaculture Planning Services
- Blacksmith Forge
We enjoy teaching, writing and speaking about what we know. If you would like to learn more about our small farm; would like to buy native plants, native shrubs and native trees, visit us at these farmers' markets; or learn about gardening classes.
OUR THIRD YEAR
Looking forward to year three! Many more native plants, gardening classes, collaborations and products for our third season in business. We can't wait to share it all with you!
