Farewell Iowa! Hello Indiana!

Our lives have changed so much in the last 5 months since our last blog post.  To start with our 2016 growing season with a total of 20 weeks of production was our best producing season yet!

We documented growing over 470 lbs of produce on our farm this season!  Of that total we noted 73 lbs were donated & 101 lbs were sold! Therefore, over 37 % of our produce grown was either donated or sold in our community!  Additionally, we certainly enjoyed preserving approximately 126 lbs & enjoying roughly 170 lbs of fresh produce over that 20 weeks.  There are a ton more statistics that we could share with you & if you are interested please message us.  However, we didn't want to bore you with all those numbers!

In addition to 2016 providing us with a wonderful growing season it also presented us with the opportunity to move back to Indiana.  We both grew up in Indiana & have looked forward to being able to make our way back eventually.  Spending from May of 2010 to February 2017 outside of Indiana was a struggle for us considering all of our family members reside in Indiana.  Now we have been able to arrange our lives in a way that allowed us to move back to Indiana!  In turn, we purchased a home on 31.5 acres in Greene County, IN!  We will miss terribly all of our friends & all the relationships that we have formed over the last 4.5 years in Iowa.  You are all welcome to come visit us at Four Flags Farm!  Send us a message to make your "reservation" & bring good shoes/boots & gloves because we will be keeping you busy while you are here!

With our new acreage comes new life & business goals.  We can't wait to start sharing our progress in accomplishing those life & business goals in our next blog post with you which will include how we start our seeds, a sourdough recipe, & building a kitty hut!  Until then we wish you peace, love, & sunshine from Four Flags Farm!
