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.

From Our Farm to You
Along with our story and the growth of our vegetables, our Microgreens are another great part of the farm. Unlike most conventionally grown microgreens, ours are grown in organic soil in our greenhouses with plenty of sun. New in 2021, we are offering a Microgreens Subscription Box that ensures a weekly box of microgreens. Available for Farm Store pickup or delivery to select cities, this is the best way to ensure you get a weekly supply of delicious, locally-grown microgreens!
Locally Grown with Local Support
As a small local farm, Heritage Prairie Farm appreciates the support of our local communities. It is through your support of our programs like Community Supported Agriculture and Microgreens Boxes that we are able to continue bringing organic produce to you through our events, at local restaurants and more.
We hope to see you at an upcoming Farm Dinner or Pizza Night!
