Farm description

We are a farm family that has been farming for 5 generations! We are into wholesale and retail vegetables and preserves. We have contacts for restaurants and wholesale customers. What we are looking for is someone who would be interested in raising chicken for meat or eggs. We want to include this into our operation but can’t spare anymore time. There is opportunity to work with us while running your own business! Opportunity to grow flower and other specialty crops available as well. If you’re interested we would love to have a chat.
