is a CSA and market farm located in Chatham, Michigan. Nestled beside a creek and pond, our small farm focuses on regenerative agriculture and celebrating the land we are lucky to steward, and be stewarded by in return. We grow a wide selection of vegetables, prioritize heirloom varieties, work to close the farm’s loop, and practice joy every day.
