Meet the Farms

🐄 At Iron & Acre, we believe the best food starts with a name, a handshake, and a farm that’s close to home.

Why It Matters:

We work hand-in-hand with 125+ small, local farms across Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois.

These aren’t anonymous suppliers — they’re the backbone of a better food system.

Who We Partner With:

We source from a collective of growers who:
• 🌱 Use regenerative, sustainable practices
• 🐓 Prioritize animal welfare and ethical treatment
• 🌾 Care deeply about land stewardship and soil health
• 👩‍🌾 Operate family-owned, independent farms

What This Means for You:

When you open your Iron & Acre box, you’re opening a direct line to the people and practices behind your food — no warehouses, no mystery meat, just real food from people you can trust.
