Certified Naturally Grown vegetable farm offering CSA boxes, cut flowers, and hardneck garlic.
Four Rivers Farm is a no-till vegetable farm with one acre in production, situated on the Illinois-Wisconsin state line and operated by the Bolocan family. The farm grows over 200 varieties of vegetables and cut flowers, along with hardneck garlic for both culinary use and seed. Seasonal CSA produce boxes feature an ever-changing selection of vegetables, salad mix, herbs, and wild edibles. Four Rivers Farm also sells at the Northbrook Farmer's Market and Green City Market, and supplies a number of Chicago-area restaurants. The farm holds Certified Naturally Grown status, a peer-reviewed certification equivalent to USDA Organic in its food safety requirements and chemical restrictions. Learn more on their About Page.
Four Rivers Farm is Certified Naturally Grown (CNG), meaning it never uses synthetic herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms. Crops are grown in raised beds cultivated by hand, with close attention to the biological life of the soil. The farm uses a no-till approach, and weed suppression relies on silage tarps, deep compost systems, and heavy mulching in pathways. Soil fertility is built through compost and worm castings, and the farm works to keep soil covered with living pathways and mulches. Pest management focuses on growing strong plants through optimal soil health, supported by row covers, beneficial nematodes, crop rotation, and manual removal.
