Little Riley Creek Farm

Little Riley Creek Farm We are a 40 acre organic farm located outside of Bluffton, Ohio. We currently grow a variety of vegetables and hay.

We are a small 40 acre farm in Ohio that has been certified organic for over 10 years. We believe creating healthy soil to make healthy plants and animals for all to enjoy! The farm is made up of 4 main fields as well as a riparian buffer where over 4000 trees were planted by hand (more on that in a minute). We put a lot of our effort into the market garden field so we have plenty for our CSA memb

ers, farmers market and our family.

4000 wasn't a typo. Those were planted by Phil Kingsley with some help from his family and friends. We were fortunate enough to know Phil who started the certification and designed the farm from the permaculture concepts. Phil unfortunately had ALS and could not live out his vision for the farm however he did find us and we hope to make Phil proud. The farm is run by Amanda with the help of Jon (husband), Dale (her father), 3 kids Mackay, Jay and Cooper. We have a lot of fun learning from other organic farms through OEFFA, podcasts and visits to other farms. We are always happy to share our many many stories from our trials on the farm. Thanks for visiting and we hope to see you at the farm or Bluffton's Farmers market.

Amanda enjoyed her FaceTime with some young students from California. She was able to show them the farm and teach them to know where their food comes from. The chickens and Bob the cat were crowd favorites.

Fall is approaching, which means eastern monarch butterflies will be on the move! Beginning mid-August, monarchs will migrate from their breeding locations to Florida or Mexico to overwinter, traveling up to 100 miles a day. Monarchs only migrate once in their life, so even though a butterfly hasn't been to its overwintering spot before, it can still navigate to the same forests that previous generations used.

You can help migrating monarchs by planting native plants that bloom in late summer and early fall like goldenrods or asters, providing shallow water sources, and providing shelter like dead trees or leaf litter.

Farmers can also provide crucial support for monarchs and other pollinators by implementing various conservation practices, like buffer strips, planting milkweed, and integrated pest management. Even crops and cover crops like alfalfa and red clover are great nectar plants for monarchs! If you're a farmer and are interested in incorporating practices to benefit pollinators, we can help you navigate some funding programs!
