Check us out 'The Good Farm' on Facebook. Or very new website: www.wegrowgoodfood.com

We are an ever evolving, ever growing concept farm.  Sustainability is our goal.  All produce is grown organically. We try to provide as much food for our animals as we can.  Our vision is to provide as much food for ourselves. Our mission is to provide a safe food supply for our community.

NEW STUFF FROM 2011: Slaughtering broilers, having laying hens, and 4 Nigerian dwarf goats were our 2011 projects.

NEW  STUFF FOR 2012: Adding pigs in the next couple of weeks, adding more layers, will have raw goat milk in the spring for drinking and cheese making.  Also, would like to add bees, mushroom cultivation, and berries to the mix this season. We have also been asked to bake all natural dog treats for the local bakery and health food store.

Normal duties may include feeding and watering animals, collecting eggs, cooking one meal per week, selling at market, helping with deliveries, construction projects, baking; garden jobs include ground preparation, seeding, transplanting, weeding, harvesting, packaging.

Always interested in hearing from folks who would like to not just read about sustainable agriculture, but come experience it. The need for additional help fluctuates based on what is happening at the time. There is normally opportunity for additional short or long term stays.  Room and board provided, stipend offered in the summer for full season interns; in the winter the opportunity to seek off the farm employment exists. Stipend always negotiable, dependent upon how income is affected by your presence. We do offer an experience of a lifetime, regardless of time of year.
