Fresh Acres “was founded in 2016 when two crazy corporate-types decided to take a leap into farming.  Our mission was, and remains, to produce healthy, locally grown food to feed your family, as well as our own.  In that vein, we purchase non-GMO seeds from carefully sourced seed companies, and we do not use harsh fertilizers and chemicals - we are not certified organic, but we grow in an organic manner. 

We also raise animals on the farm, closer to the way God intended them to be raised - they are free-range / pasture-raised, and we supplement with soy-free, transitional-organic feed.

In 2018, we added to our mission by sharing the farm with others through a corn maze.  We have all the usual things expected at a corn maze such as additional activities (pumpkin patch, petting zoo, inflatables, combine slide, yard games, corn cannon, bale mountain, and more), as well as vendors to provide food.”
