About the Market

Background

The farm operates under the auspices of College of the Ozarks, engaging college students in hands-on agricultural education and production. It has become known for integrating academic learning with practical farming experience, allowing students to cultivate and produce a variety of goods.

Practices

Students manage the cultivation of vegetables in the campus garden, raise livestock on the beef and hog farms, and oversee dairy production. This hands-on approach not only provides educational value but also ensures that all products are grown and made with care and attention.

The Rest

The farm is open seasonally from May to October, offering a range of products directly to consumers. This seasonal operation allows visitors to purchase fresh, student-grown vegetables, meat, and dairy products.
