Our Vision

Our farm is designed to connect people to agriculture in a new way.  Children, as well as developers and city planners, need to see that intown sustainable farms are possible.  Everyone should have a place where they can savor nature and appreciate how their food grows. 


We’ve dedicated our farm to cultivating healthy food and communities, which is why we maintain an open-door policy for volunteers and community-inspired events and workshops.  We grow organic produce, flowers, and eggs, and raise animals using sustainable methods.  You can become a member of our Community Supported Agriculture to receive these products and/or shop at our Farm Stand.  Our farm is also a member of the following programs: Slow Food Austin/USA, National Farm To School Program (FTS), Texas Organic Farmers & Gardeners Association (TOFGA).


Your support of local food ensures the continuation of Austin’s rich farming heritage.  School groups, special events, weddings, and on-farm workshops are welcome. If you’d like our input on your project, please see our consulting services.
