Welcome to Broad Branch Farm

Broad Branch Farm is a chemical free farm located in north central Illinois. For 14 years, we have been committed to producing clean, healthy food for local patrons. Our growing practices surpass USDA organic standards for everything we produce – vegetables, chickens, eggs, beef, and hogs . We firmly believe a strong local food supply can improve the local economy, health, and overall outlook of our community.

Our farm’s vegetables, meat and eggs are marketed solely through our CSA program. In this program, you purchase a share of vegetables, meat and/or eggs. Read more about our CSA program if you would like to receive our food.

Customers come back year after year for the fresh, delicious vegetables, amazing eggs and meats. Sign up for a CSA share to receive your portion of the farm’s harvest.

Despite the heat and drought of 2012, our family celebrates a successful 2012 growing season. We wish to thank all our customers, employees, friends and family for supporting our efforts to produce local food for our community. The food that is produced on this farm takes the effort of many hands directly and indirectly, and our customers keep us in business. Our family sincerely appreciates all of you!

Our family wishes all of you a peaceful and healthy new year.

Brian, Anita, Lucy, Susannah, and Laura Poeppel
