In the spring of 2011, we sat down with a seed catalog to plan a small, personal garden. The garden was about twice what we needed, so we decided to sell our extra vegetables to a local restaurant to pay for the cost of raising it. Using organic production techniques, we managed to produce way more food than we could ever eat by ourselves, so we gave the extras to friends and family. During that summer, several people asked us if we had plans to offer a CSA program. Neither of us had heard of the concept, but after a trip to the library and a few weeks of reading, we were ready to give it a try. We began that summer with 8 CSA members, 1 restaurant, and 1/2 an acre in vegetable production.

Every year we have added more land into crop production, and more members to the CSA program. The number of local restaurants continued to climb, and since then we have been happy to work with some of the finest in our area: Bellini's, House Food+Wine, Shorty's Urban Market, Bour-bon, Heirloom, Distilled @ Gratz Park, Graze, Locals', National Provisions, The Village Idiot, Lexington Diner, Sunrise Bakery, Lockbox @ 21C, Apiary, and Vinaigrette.

Over the past years we have learned a lot about how much we love to farm...we really couldn't imagine doing anything else. Fast forward 6 years, and we are now farming full time with 60 CSA members, and more than 6 acres in vegetable and small fruit production! Our produce is now offered for restaurant purchase and home delivery in Lexington (KY), Louisville (KY), Winchester (KY), and Cincinnati (OH).
