About our Farm

 

We have been a family farm for 50 years.  Melvin and Rosemary Allen (Dan’s parents) bought this 19 acre farm in 1957.  The family developed strong work ethics raising cows, pigs and chicken through out the years.  There was great pride taken in farming the land.

 

In 1972 Dan and Kathy were married. Both of us love the rural farm life. We raised and taught our children the same basic ethics of life.  (Sarah, Chad and Brenda)  They now have families of their own.

 

After mom and dad Allen could no longer care for the farm, we purchased it in 1999.  Since then, we spend more time outdoors than indoors.  Over these past few years we have contemplated on how to best use the land.  In 2006, the light bulb came on and we decided to grow asparagus.  In 2007, planting of asparagus began, with the Spring of 2009 being our first year of harvest.

 

The future is ours to mold.
