Local Organic Food For You and Your Family

Posted on: Wed, 01/25/2012 - 12:15| By: Broad Branch Farm

We are Broad Branch Farm - a local organic family farm growing organic vegetables and raising pastured chickens for eggs and meat, pastured hogs and grass fed grass finished beef. We are growers, consumers, and strong advocates for local organic agriculture. We are raising 3 daughters on the farm and they have learned to appreciate from an early age the amazing food we raise here on the farm. And what we don't raise ourselves, we find local organic farmers who do.

And we share our harvest through a Community Supported Agriculture program or CSA. With delivery to Peoria and Peoria Heights, customers purchase a share of the harvest of vegetables, eggs, and meat. Customers receive a delivery every week or every other week for vegetables and eggs and once a month for the meat shares.
