Be your family's Hero!
Know your farmer. Know Where your food comes from. Change the way your family wants to eat!
So many people today worry about the quality of food we eat.
We created a farm that offers nutrient-dense food for our customers, while improving the characteristics of soil, air, and water!
Now, your family gets both flavor and quality: clean food from integrity farming.
We are passionate about transforming how people relate to themselves and their food, we work to empower and benefit the communities in which we exist. That means our commitment is to be more than sustainable.

The Edge Farms
Our name derives from patterns that emerge in nature. The edge of any ecosystem naturally has more diversity than other areas. Consider the place where a pond meets the edge of a forest - far more abundant life thrives there than in the middle of a field for example.
The Edge Farms builds diversity into intensively managed areas and creates healthy mini-ecosystems.
We treat the humanely-raised animals, the crops and soil as an interwoven ecological system with unique relationships that support and nurture one another. Using no commercial fertilizers nor GMOs, we leave the land better than when we arrived.
Shouldn't that be how farms work all over the country?
Why do we love to support local business and farms whenever we can?
It’s not because we can’t get great quality production overseas. Or that those workers don’t also need good jobs. Or that we don’t support a global economy. It is because we believe in putting our company dollars towards local jobs. Because we love to know our neighbors.
It is because we believe in making it personal. Relationships built on handshakes and the value of a person's word means THAT much to us. For a small business it is often easier to develop personal relationships with our neighbors.
It is because we value high quality and that starts by supporting our community. Join us!
