WHO WE ARE

Folk & Flora is a community-centered farm in a small but charming town in NW Arkansas. Providing our local and surrounding communities with fresh, organic, non-gmo vegetables, fruit, dairy and meat. Our family comes from a hectic and busy life in Southern California, so we know the importance of being present for our children, eating good food and digging deep into our own roots. In the coming months Folk & Flora will provide a place where families can come, see, feel and learn about this food movement and what is fundamentally part of all our primitive history and God given design.

FARMERS MARKET

Bi-monthly, Folk & Flora is hoping to make an appearance at the Fayetteville and Bentonville farmers market. We will sell farm-fresh fruits and vegetables (product depends on what is in season), dairy products, eggs, and meat as well as organic skin care products and our popular ‘Mother Hen’ and ‘Farmer’ tee-shirts. We also are hoping to have bi-weekly, fresh produce pick ups at the farm!

FARM CAMPS

Every year, Folk & Flora wants to be able to open up our 12 acre property to educate the little farmers from all over the United States. It’s will be a fun time to come learn about the different animals, participate in milking, feeding and taking part in the daily chores and life of a modern farmer. This is a great opportunity to teach children hard work, where our food comes from at the sometime make new friends and have fun!

Poultry Processing Class

Our goals it to eventually have ethical chicken-processing workshop and to teach others how to humanly kill, clean and process their very own chicken ready for the dinner table. The two-part workshop would begin with a brief talk on why the sustainable ethics of animal care matters, and how it affects the processing process. During the second hands-on part of the workshop, attendees will learn the basics of humanely butchering, plucking, cleaning, and packaging chicken.

COME AND GET IT

Come and get your fresh produce, dairy and meat twice a week at our farm or central meeting location. We will have everything packaged and ready for you to take home!

CLASSES

Come learn a new skill with us! Every month, Folk & Flora will host an educational class on many things like how to make your own artisan cheese, beekeeping, milking classes, calligraphy or even flower arrangement. It’s a great way to get away with friends, to educate a school group or to start a new hobby!

EVENTS

What better way to celebrate than on the Folk & Flora farm? We would love to host your wedding, birthday parties corporate and more!

“The first supermarket supposedly appeared on the American landscape in 1946. That is not very long ago. Until then, where was all the food? Dear folks, the food was in homes, gardens, local fields, and forests. It was near kitchens, near tables, near bedsides. It was in the pantry, the cellar, the backyard.”
