Happy Hollow Farm is nestled among the rolling hills along the Missouri River. The primary growing fields border the Little Splice Creek bottom and thus benefit from the beautiful silt loam soils that are rich in organic matter. We are a USDA certified organic farm and use a combination of highly managed cover cropping techniques, crop rotations, compost applications, hay mulch and add small quantities of minerals and nutrients.
My goal is to give back more to the soil than I take. Happy Hollow Farm welcomes all who are interested in supporting local sustainable agriculture to become a CSA member. Each member receives a box of seasonal produce every week during the 32 week growing season (Early May thru the end of December).

Community-supported agriculture farms began in the early 1960s in Germany, Switzerland, and Japan as a response to concerns about food safety and the urbanization of agricultural land. Groups of consumers and farmers in Europe formed cooperative partnerships to fund farming and pay the true costs of ecologically sound and socially equitable agriculture.
