Renee and Kevin are a husband-and-wife team established Earth’s Palate Farm in 2018 with their two kids. The farm is nestled on 40 acres which include 4 greenhouses with a small plot of field production for heirloom vegetables and honeybees during the summer months. Tender greens and vegetables are grown year-round in the greenhouses. In addition to the produce, they raise 100 egg layers (chicken) who forage on fresh grass, meat birds on pasture and heritage pork that like to root around in the open elements. They have embraced the concepts of regenerative agriculture at the onset of beginning their farm. The farm is evolving yearly and slowly expanding with the natural landscape.
