Our Neighbors
Folks here in southern Indiana are doing all sorts of neat things. Here are a few highlights we find interesting:
August Rising Acres
Looking for great veggies? August Rising Acres grows incredible vegetables. We met Amanda because we both sell at the Columbus Brown Street Market, and because we're both supporters of the Columbus Food Co-op. We realized we have lots in common: a focus on healthy soil, delicious food, and strong communities.
Plumer & Bowers Farmstead
We've gotten to know Dennis and Tricia through the Seymour Farmer's Market, and their story resonates with us. They, too, have returned home to the family farm and are in the process of converting from conventional row crops to pasture. If you're looking for grass-fed beef or locally grown and ground whole wheat flour, look no farther than their family farm.
Columbus Food Co-op
A thriving food co-op is a grocery store. It's also a community of people who share knowledge, recipes, and food. And a food co-op is a way to invest in our community, create jobs, and keep our dollars local. We can't wait to see the Columbus Food Co-op open its doors. We're partnering with them on local food-related events, and we're members. Someday, we hope you'll find our chickens for sale on their shelves.
Farm Indiana
We write a column for this terrific monthly newspaper. Find our column, "The View at Nightfall," in each month's edition. We're aiming to share our adventures, failures, and successes as first year farmers with the wider southern Indiana community. Farm Indiana is an insert in local daily newspapers, so about 30,000 copies are distributed in our region each month. We're honored that we get to participate in the conversation about food, farming, and community in southern Indiana. Look for our column and other great articles - the paper includes features on area farms, events listings, Q and A with livestock vets, and more.
Grazing Bites
This local publication is written for farmers raising livestock on pasture. The monthly newsletter provides info on tools and techniques for good grazing.
Hoosier Young Farmers Coalition
We hope you'll join this group of young and beginning sustainable farmers in Indiana looking to connect, collaborate and interact with one another. Farming is tough work, especially in the beginning years, and we provide a community of like minded and similarly engaged peers to help ensure young and beginning farmers find success in Indiana, and have some fun along the way!
