ABout Us

Mike and I (Kelsey Pressler) met in the biology labs at CMU and would come up to West Branch on the weekends to enjoy nature at his father’s cabin.  We were thrilled when we had the opportunity to move up here ourselves! Now Mike teaches Microbiology at a nearby college and I teach Biology at the local high school.  We work together to manage the homestead with our four junior farmers.  We launched the self-serve farm stand and Sweet Briar Farm Products LLC soon after moving to West Branch in 2014. 

As parents, we want to feed our kids the best but organic food from the grocery store is just too expensive and not as clean as we’d like. So we started a garden… which grew!  Now we plant about 3 acres of produce, collect honey from our apiary, and we’ve added breeding goats, cattle, and pigs to our little farm.  Now we have a bounty of healthful, clean, happy food for our family and yours!

Our farmstand is self-serve and open year-round from sunrise to sunset.  We keep it stocked with honey.  Watch our signs and Facebook page to see what’s available each day from early summer through fall. As they come into the season we’ll have vegetables including tomatoes, sweet corn, cucumbers, pickles, dill, kale, green and yellow beans, potatoes, and a variety of squashes.

In the fall we’ll have many different sizes and colors of pumpkins for carving, decorating, and pies. We also grow ornamental corn, gourds, and sell bunches of cornstalks.   

Pork and Beef are available by reservation, custom butchered to your specifications.

Piglets, calves, and kids are also available at different times throughout the year.  We will list available animals on our blog, however we offer animals to those on our call-lists before advertising to the public.  To get on our call-lists please contact us sweetbriarfarmllc@gmail.com.
