Grandpa William "Tiny" Zehnder ( 1919 - 2006) started this Farm based on his love for farming and we carry on that wholesome tradition. Come see and learn about traditional heritage farming as well as some more modern techniques. This is a great place to learn about 'where food comes from' while having some fun with the entire family!

7-17-18: Lavender for 2018 is ready! We offer everything from small dried bundles to bulk amounts while supplies last.
7-11-18 Thank you everyone who came out and made this spectacular event happen! 100+ Farmers learned about the benefit of covercrops thanks to the support from the Saginaw Conservation District, Blue Water Conservation District, Salford Group, MSU-Extension, Cisco Seeds, The Nature Conservancy Star of the West, Bavarian Inn Restaurant, Bavarian Inn Lodge, USDA-NRCS and Bavarian Bleachers just to name a few. We were honored that not only was Dorothy Zehnder and her entire family out to show support, but Senator Ken Horn dropped by to check out the festivities.
All throughout the day we kept hearing how thrilled William 'Tiny' Zehnder would have been knowing that his Farm is being used as such a hub for knowledge! It makes us so happy knowing that we're all working hard at carrying on his dream. 
Grandpa Tiny's Farm has been certified by the Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP) after meeting standards in Farmstead, Livestock and Cropping Systems. This is a proactive and voluntary program that helps Farms prevent agricultural pollution risks. Click on Maeap.org to learn more.
