Welcome to our Farm and Market Garden: Locally Grown Food, Short Term Rentals, & Education on 40 Acres
the farm
Since Fall 2020, Kapristo Farms has made impressive progress in developing a sustainable and regenerative farming system. The farm built a 100-foot all-season greenhouse, which features a geothermic earth battery and cleared a field to build thirty-two 100-foot beds. They began selling produce in the summer of 2021 and started their first CSA program after building a self-serve roadside stand in Spring 2022. Additionally, we have expanded our animal husbandry practices at Kapristo Farms. We continue to grow our rabbitry, ducks, chickens, and other animals to help fertilize the garden and as another source of fresh, locally-raised protein for our community. Kapristo Farms is committed to implementing innovative solutions for sustainable agriculture, and this progress is just the beginning of their mission to create a more resilient food system for their community.
why we are unique
At Kapristo Farms, we are not just another farm, we are unique in many ways. Our main goal is to create a self-sufficient community that prioritizes food security using a closed-loop system. To achieve this, we go the extra mile to deliver our CSA shares to our customers’ doorstep via horse and cart, reducing our carbon footprint and providing a unique experience. Our packaging is upcycled, reusable, and environmentally conscious, making us the only farm in the area to offer such an option.
But that’s not all. We are now looking to expand our offerings by providing an off-grid glamping experience for individuals who want to disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature. Our glamping experience will provide guests with farm-to-table food, made with fresh produce grown right here on the farm. By combining sustainable practices with unique experiences, we are setting ourselves apart from other farms and creating a truly unforgettable experience for our customers.

Origianaly I had added retreats, and courses to this section.
However I am questioning whether I really want to commit to this.
Hoping to brainstorm other options.
I don’t want to add this to my life just cause it would make money and look good to an investor
