Plow Creek Farm is affiliated with the Mennonite Church USA, and specializes in producing nutritious fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural products while minimizing the use of chemicals and machinery to the greatest extent possible. Primary products include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, seedless watermelon, sweet corn, and tomatoes. From time to time, grass-fed beef (no hormones/no antibiotics) is offered as well. The community also offers additional products and services such as baked goods, carpentry and cabinet work, and pottery, among others. The Plow Creek Fellowship welcomes visitors who might be curious about their practices and lifestyle.
