The Farm
We are a 120+ year old family farm that produces eggs, chicken, and lamb from our pasture-based system. We serve our ND community with a farm store, online shop, and a multi-farm CSA.
The Project Funded
The For Farmers grant is helping us with funding to improve our egg collecting, washing, packaging, and distributing system.
The Project Impact
Our 200 hens lay around 800 eggs a week, and our subscribers keep coming. The grant is upgrading our egg collecting, washing, and packaging system, moving us toward the commercial setup we need to keep every dozen moving safely from coop to customer.
