Building into my own operation was a long time in the making, working at six different organic farms over the course of nine years. An enthusiastic round of applause is due to all the busy farmers who make time to train doe-eyed kids like myself- it takes a lot of energy and patience and we would not have as many next generation farmers without that effort.

Here at Polish Farmer, I put those years of training to use and practice methods that are sustainable and work with the Earth’s ecosystem. I also practice seed saving to develop a seed bank that is more adapted and resilient to the area. While the farm grows, a dedication to sustainability and respect for all living things will continue to be at the center of the work I do. So get back to your roots, enjoy a delicious meal and join the Polka!
