Our mission is to produce wholesome, nutrient dense food with regenerative farming practices and feed 10,000 families a healthier meal by 2030.
Wanda Farms began in 2018 with nothing but an idea to change the course that the farming industry was heading from quantity to quality food that nourishes our health. Our farm currently is a 150 acre regenerative, grass-based farm that is focused on producing quality grass-fed meats, improving our land, and helping to feed our customers a healthier meal. We currently rotate 100 head of beef, 160 hogs, 30,000 broilers chickens, 200 turkeys, and 2800 laying hens on our pastures here in northern Illinois and currently feed 2000 families.
Wanda Farm’s vision and aspirations are to continue to grow the operation to where we are feeding 10,000 families by the end of 2030. We want the business to support our family and others that work here with an environment that leaves us feeling that we are making a positive impact in the agriculture industry and our customer’s lives. We also have a long-term goal for the farm to evolve into a ministry that educates and inspires new beginning farmers through our internships program. Our goal is to not stop there, but have more local partner farms join us as we continue our mission to feed 10,000 families here in the midwest.
We have 3 core values that are important to us and feel that our customers connect to those values. First, our Faith in Jesus Christ directs us in how we farm and treat our customers. We are responsible from God’s commandments to take care of His creation (the farmland, animals, and our health) as stewards. We also are responsible for sharing His grace/love/respect in our daily life interactions with our customers and others. Second, Family cannot be neglected, we want to prioritize our family first in work/life balance and support our customer’s families health. Third, Farm, we love the lifestyle of farming. We dedicate our life to it and feel it to be a privilege to work on a farm, not a chore. Everyone that participates on Wanda Farms has a passion for farming and chooses this lifestyle, not out of necessity, but for the love to work with God’s creation and/or serve our customers with wonderful farm products that nourish their bodies.
