We have some exciting news to share!

When we first started out, one of our biggest hurdles was finding ways to market our products. It was a struggle to reach beyond family and friends and build a customer base of our own.

A friend told us about The Witty Farmer Store in Riggston and said we HAD to try their chocolate milk. So, of course, we did.

While we were in the store, we noticed they didn't have chicken, so we inquired about putting our chicken in their store.

That opportunity changed everything for us.

Once we were able to market our products through a storefront, our business grew exponentially in a very short time. We couldn't be more grateful to The Witty Farmer for giving us that opportunity.

Now, we're excited to announce that The Witty Farmer is coming to Rushville!

The Witty Farmer Store in Rushville is our way of giving other local producers the same opportunity that was given to us, while providing our community with convenient access to the best-quality products our neighbors have to offer.

Our goal is simple: to bring local producers and local families together.

We want to help create a place where you can walk through the doors, find food produced right here in our community, and know the name of the person who produced it.

We're incredibly excited for what we're building, and we can't wait to take you along with us.

The Witty Farmer – Rushville

The Witty Farmer Store is coming to Rushville! 🎉

We’re excited to announce our newest location opening in Rushville, IL — run by Josh and Faith Hamilton (our chicken producers)! They loved being part of the Riggston & Waverly stores and wanted to bring it to their own hometown.

We’re currently looking for local commercial kitchen partners: bread makers, jams & jellies, coffee, desserts, honey, and premade meals.

Message and follow the Rushville page for updates and progress on the store build here:
