Brooks Farm

Brooks Farm Brooks farm offers quality produce to the Louisville area. Our vegetables are grown sustainably and Matthews!

Brooks Farm is located in the back hills of Breckinridge County, Kentucky nestled in what is known locally as Norton's Valley. The property is mostly wooded in addition to pasture and hay land and room enough for a large vegetable garden. My ancestry goes back at least four generations in this Valley. In 2008 my grandfather passed away leaving this land to my stewardship. I didn't grow up as a far

mer, but with an eye toward care and sustainable practices I was determined to make something of this land. After graduating college in 2011 with a degree in philosophy I began a two year internship at a local CSA and market farm where I learned the fundamentals of how to grow and market fresh produce. After selling my produce at farmers markets in the Louisville area during the 2012 season, the Brooks Farm veggie CSA launched in 2013. My first 2 CSA seasons were successful ones and I am looking forward to what the 2015 season will bring. Vegetable and egg shares are still available so be sure to check out the CSA information. In addition to offering naturally and sustainably grown produce I am currently transitioning my grandfather's cattle operation to a grass fed and finished system and will soon begin direct marketing our beef. This year the farm has also seen the introduction of a flock of laying hens and we are now offering an egg CSA in addition to our vegetable CSA. I strongly believe in the future of local agriculture and am committed to growing highest quality products in a sustainable manner for the health of soil, family, and community. Come see me at the NuLu Phoenix Hill Farmers Market on the corner of Baxter and Jefferson, Tuesdays 3-6 pm or at the Beargrass Christian Church Farmers market on Saturdays from 8-12 in St.

We got the birds out on pasture a couple weeks ago. In a couple more weeks we'll have for sale. And we got our second round of 100 chicks today. They'll move into the pens as soon as these move out. The pens get moved twice a day onto fresh grass, the birds dropping rich fertilizer onto the pasture all the while. Adding pastured broilers to the operation has been pretty great so far!

Tomatoes are gonna take off! 7 rows, 4 varieties, almost 300 plants. I'm trying out 2 double row beds and the rest single row. Also trying out using landscape fabric. First time trying out the trellis system. Lots of "trying things out" but I think it'll be worth it!

After a few hang ups and missing pieces I'm finally done installing trusses. Now it's time to get tomatoes in here.
