The Schrader Acre

10/12/2026

We signed up to be farmers. Why? Because we’re crazy. 😂

Actually, our number one motivating factor is much simpler: bringing good food to our community that folks can trust.

We believe it’s time we know who our farmers are. Where our food comes from. How it’s grown. And who is putting in the early mornings, long days, muddy boots, and hard work to get it onto our tables.

But our hope and goals only work if we have buyers [like you] that care too! Ways to learn more and/or support our shared goals:

🧑‍🌾 Shop and Share: shop from our farm and share our store link to friends and neighbors!
🧑‍🌾 Give us Feedback: if you don’t buy often but would like to, tell us why (pickup or delivery not nearby/at a good time, missing products, etc).
🧑‍🌾 Join Our Newsletter: By signing up for our newsletter, you receive the latest updates, seasonal recipes, and get first dibs on this season's harvest.

Happy National Farmers Day!

🚨 Farm update… and a BIG personal announcement!

It’s been a little quiet around here, but for good reason!

🐔 Our latest batch of pasture-raised chickens headed to the processor this week, which means fulfillment day is Saturday, August 8th!

🐖 We also took our very first hog to the processor! If all goes as planned, we’ll have pork available in early September. We are SO excited!

And finally… our biggest news yet… ❤️

Our family is growing! Baby Schrader will be joining us this December.

So if I’ve been a little MIA, forgotten to post, or taken longer to reply… pregnancy brain is no joke. Thank you for supporting our growing family and our little farm. We can’t wait to share this next chapter with all of you!
