About Us
All about Eaters...
Established in 2017 we are a small family farm operating just 15 minutes from downtown Frederick. On our farm we try to grow a little of everything that we like to eat and hope our customers will enjoy it as much as we do. We follow organic principles and someday plan to be certified organic. Our wonderful egg laying hens roam free all day with access to all our 11 acres, only to be locked up in the evening for their own safety. We believe the hens roaming leads to the best health of the birds and the farm as a whole system. That also results in the healthiest and most tasty eggs!
Our family has been farming together since 2008, however we relocated to our current property in 2016 where we had a blank slate ready to be planted. The first CSA season of Eaters was in 2017. Catherine and Kobi both studied sustainable agriculture as well as worked on various types of farms to gain first hand knowledge before first jumping into farming while living in Davis, California. While California was a great start to farming, after having our daughter, Uriya, we realized the importance of being near family and moved to the east coast to seek out a new farm. After looking at many farms and communities throughout Northern Virgina and around Maryland, it was clear that the Frederick area was a perfect new start for our family farm and luckily we stumbled upon this beautiful piece of property that is now Eaters Acres. Now today our son Rafi has joined are farm crew, we are building up the farm little by little so that we eat well along with our customers!
We are so excited to be growing to feed our community and look forward to many productive years ahead!
more than just fruits and veggies...
Eggs, eggs & eggs. Our hens are an integral part of our farming system. We also grow habit spaces for beneficial insects, birds and everything that completes a holistic farming system.
