In 2008 Fair Winds Farm celebrated 30 years of horse-powered, family farming!

Fair Winds Farm is a 40 acre diversified, horse powered, family operated farm. We work together with our horses, chickens, sheep, goats, turkeys, pigs and perennial and vegetable gardens to feed ourselves and our community.

Draft Horses
Jay, Janet and daughter Rebekah run the farm business with the help of many others, including: Bekah's husband, Todd and kids Mayah and Evan, Jay & Janet's daughter Erica and family (Jason, Jonas and Margaret). The farm is truly a community effort, and we welcome the participation of friends Joe, Mary-Diane, John, Meg and interns. Less involved but no less important is Jay & Janet's son Reuben and his family, Judy and Marie. Through the participation of each of these minds and bodies, the farm evolves to suit its farmers. We thank each for their contributions and welcome you to come and visit.
