There is one way to answer these questions. Support your local farm and farmer. Five Cardinals Farm’s mission is to regenerate the soil, provide nutritious food, and connect people to their food and farmer.
Five Cardinals Farm is family owned and operated. We’re not just a husband-and-wife team, the entire family contributes to the farm. Just as we believe it’s important to connect with your food, we want people to connect with their farmer. Feel free to contact us to schedule a farm tour. We’d be happy to show you around and share our story.
The average food product in the grocery store travels nearly 1500 miles. That’s not very local or fresh. Even when some of those grocery stores have a seasonal “local farm” display, most of that produce is still coming from other states. Though the Country-of-Origin Label (COOL) does help identify the origin of some products, most foods do not require it. One of our goals as farmers, is to help people connect with their food. Here at Five Cardinals Farm, you can meet the farmers, see where your food is grown, and support a local business.
Our farm members have special access to our on-site farm store.
