Farm ID: BRAR
Joshua & Kelsey Sprouse
Tell the world where you got your chicken!
Josh, Kelsey, and little Beau are living the dream. Josh and Kelsey are full-time landscapers who have always wanted to be farmers. They have spent years working on other farms and learning from other farmers and agriculturalists so one day they would be ready to farm when it was their turn. Their proudest moment has been “the day the chicks came down the driveway for the first time. Knowing a lifelong dream of becoming a farmer was coming to fruition”. Josh and Kelsey built new chicken houses on a farm they had bought. The day the chicks came, they had their family and farm mentors present to take in every minute of their dream with them. Some of their mentor farmers even include our very own Farmer Focus farming partners. These first-generation farmers have a lot of passion and years of farming ahead of them, and love seeing their son (who they say is the Farm Manager) grow up learning the humane treatment of animals. On the farm, they also have organic certified hay, and have an interest in transitioning more land to be organic. Outside of farming, they enjoy gardening, hunting, and spending time at the river with family.
