The Grateful in Plains

Gratitude is a vibration. It is a frequency that resonates each time a person interrupts challenges by looking at the bright side and truly embracing all that is possible, even in seasons of drought and pestilence. When plants grow on land that is loved and cherished, something magical happens. Abundance. Beauty. Rare seeds, heritage breeds.

Farmers-in-love

Growing forever together

One day not too long ago, a 5th generation family farmer born and raised in the Illinois River Valley met an amazing woman who shared his work ethic, passion for working the ground and enthusiasm for living life to its fullest. He married her as soon as she believed she deserved to live happily ever after. And they do. . .

Location

For the 2021 growing season, our farm transitions from revival to crop production mode. As we adapt in the aftermath of global pandemic quarantine, our main delivery remains curbside pickup and virtual learning. We are very sad our retail space in the Village of Grand Ridge mat not be open for fresh cut flower flowers or market days. We will host outdoor shopping by appointment only just before Mother's Day 2021. We intend to also host a very special Rural Heritage Exhibit in August.
