About

Saint Joseph Acres is both a first generation farm, and one with deep roots. The farm is located just north of McMinnville, where the town of Saint Joseph used to be. Though the land has been in Mark's family as a dairy since 1920, this is its first time growing produce for market. After fifteen years of grass seed production, Mark and Liz have the opportunity to return the land to food production.

In 2015 the farm started with a 1.5 acre plot filled with row upon row of various crops. In August of that year the first truckload of produce went to market, and from then on Mark and Liz have delighted in sharing the fruits, and vegetables, of their labor with the public. Talking to people about what we grow and how we grow it is the highlight of our week.
