Our Story
From humble beginnings and big dreams, our story started in the soil we go back to every day. Although our farm story continues to flourish, we are proud of our many accomplishments. In just a few years Heritage Prairie Farm went from Certified Naturally Grown to USDA Certified Organic. We are proud to grow our produce in a sustainable and efficient way — always giving back to Mother Nature for giving so much to us.
As we continue our story, it is our hope to continually give back to our community. Whether it’s a wedding or a farm dinner, farm-to-table event or class at the farm, we truly love to share our USDA Certified Organic produce with those around us. Our outdoor wedding venue holds wide acclaim throughout the entire Chicagoland area. The Knot, Wedding Wire, and The Venue Report have all featured the many farm weddings at Heritage Prairie Farm. Our desire to innovate our monthly Farm Dinners leads to many partnerships with local breweries, distilleries, and unique vendors. But, no matter what, the root of every event at Heritage Prairie Farm is our locally grown produce. As the seasons change, so do our customized events according to what is growing on the farm.

Our Sweetest Dreams
Along with our story and the growth of our vegetables, honey has been a source of beginnings at the farm. Throughout the years, our delicious raw honey grows in popularity. We now have several flavors available in our Farm Store: Cinnamon, Lavender, Cocoa, Mint, and Pumpkin Pie Spice. Our honey is also tasted at many local restaurants, as well as local breweries who have featured our honey in their brews.
Farm Store Fun
As many of you know, the Heritage Prairie Farm Store continuously grows with new vendors, events, and produce to share. Our story continues to unfold as any more changes come to the Farm Store.
