About Our Farm
Welcome to the beautiful vegetable fields, pasture, and woods of Angelic Organics. Our 155 acres include a working farm, a learning center, and plenty of space for your imagination!
A Working Farm
The Peterson family has farmed this land for three generations. Their rich heritage of family farming lives on today for more than 1,400 families who buy produce direct from the farm. This type of farming is called community supported agriculture (CSA). Angelic Organics, now one of the largest CSA farms in the country, is nationally recognized as a model for community supported agriculture.
Our farm and the life of farmer John Peterson have been chronicled in the award-winning documentary film The Real Dirt on Farmer John.
A Living Classroom
Soils, plants, animals, and people all play an important role in the life of the farm. Angelic Organics grows an astounding variety of vegetables and herbs for its CSA members using biodynamic methods. Livestock produce milk and eggs, as well as nutrients for the soil. Our dairy goats, chickens, cattle, and composting worms make delightful companions (and teachers!) for visitors.
The Learning Center's facilities have grown with the help of hundreds of volunteers and donors. Thanks to their community spirit, we've constructed a meeting and workshop space, an outdoor shelter, a timber-frame barn, and composting toilets. Our buildings incorporate sustainable design features such as round-wood framing, straw-bale construction, and solar heating.
