Pond Hill Farm

Pond Hill Farm, which has grown to 238 acres, has a rustic, real and intentional, on-farm vibe. An on-site saw mill provides wood for the countertops throughout the facility and slabs customers can purchase. “We wanted to use pieces from our land in the building,” Marci says. The farm has goats, pigs, chickens and bunnies, too. “That’s been dramatically downsized since I first came to the farm,” Marci says, noting there used to be upward of 40 cows, and a whole herd of sheep, pigs and chickens. “The whole process was not financially viable, so now the animals live here for our guests to enjoy,” she adds. People particularly like their chicken wagon, a mobile chicken house that allows chickens to forage on new ground as the wagon and fencing are moved to new areas of the farm as cleanup after harvest. The farm hosts many educational fields trips. “We are teaching kids about where their food comes from, parts of the plant they eat, and making good choices in what they eat,” she adds.
