Root & Sky Farm

Root & Sky Farm is a small family farm established in 2017 on roughly 60 acres of pasture and forest in Northern Illinois. The farm raises beef cattle, pigs, Katahdin sheep, laying chickens, meat chickens, and turkeys, and maintains a developing orchard. Its stated mission is the renewal and restoration of its land, which was historically hunted by the Potawatomi and farmed by 19th-century beekeeper C. C. Miller. Customers can purchase meat by farm pickup, twice-monthly home delivery, or in bulk as quarter, half, or whole animals. The farm communicates inventory and pricing through a monthly newsletter, which customers can join by email.
