Small Family Farm

Jillian Jacquinot
608.625.4178
Small Family Farm is located in Southwest Wisconsin in the Driftless Coulee Region. We are stewards of 21 beautiful ridge top acres of land. We grow over 70 varieties of vegetables using organic and biodynamic methods. We raise pastured chickens and pigs for meat. We primarily market our vegetables thru the CSA program where the members receive a weekly box of veggies from our farm.   
Consider signing up for a change in your life that affects the lives of countless other families in our bioregion that drink from the same groundwater, breathe the same air and live near the same crop fields as you. Make an affordable change in your life that isn’t all that radical, a change that mimics the way it once was; to a time when our parents and grandparents ate from their own gardens, orchards and pastures.

Kickapoo Gold

Phil & Sarah Gudgeon
608.634.4155 
or toll-free at 866.290.8280
Phil and Sarah Gudgeon, owners of Kickapoo Gold, havea family history of making maple syrup in the Kickapoo Valley dating back to the late 1800s. Their memories of making syrup the "old-fashioned" way stretch back to the 1950s when the family only produced syrup for their own needs and some to give away, burning an open fire beneath the sap cooking pan and canning the syrup on a stove in the basement.
From tree to table, Kickapoo Gold's syrup making process is a unique hybrid of old and new, producing high quality syrup while achieving sustainability and efficiency.
