About the Farm

Background

Located along rich green hillsides just west of Lompoc, California, the farm sprawls across 40 acres of rich land. Originally purchased by Jeremy Raff’s grandfather, Mike Raff, in 1970, the farm saw Jeremy's return in 2008 to revive it alongside Megan, whom he later married. They left their corporate jobs, renamed the farm, and have since grown to serve the local community with fresh produce and healthy chickens.

Practices

The farm adheres to sustainable farming practices, cultivating fresh, chemical-free produce and raising healthy, humanely treated chickens. Crops grow in hand-formed beds free from herbicides, GMOs, and pesticides. The farm also emphasizes local service to maintain the quality and freshness of produce.

The Rest

Visitors can enjoy self-guided farm tours or book guided tours by appointment. The farm offers a work-stay guest program through WWOOF-USA and classes on backyard chickens and gardening. The farm stand and CSA provide fresh produce, and the farm is active in the local farmer's market. Additionally, the farm honors its history with a Willow tree planted in memory of Jeremy’s grandmother.
