Kirk
Farm, formerly Kemp
Farm, has been in the family for over one hundred years. Until 1967 it was a dairy
and chicken farm. In 1972, it became Kirk Farm and raised dairy replacements and
beef. This lasted until 1982, when we began growing vegetables. We grew twenty-five
acres of vegetables and two greenhouses of bedding plants, selling wholesale and
through our farmstand.
In 1998 we
switched our operation to a healthier, natural method of production,
using no chemical fertilizers or sprays. During the years 2003,2004
and 2005, we were certified organic. We grow what we sell through
several local farmer's markets.
