About Us
We began market gardening and selling at the Haymarket Farmers Market in the 80's when there were only a handfull of vendors at that market.

We've raised sheep, sold grass-fed Jersey milk but now we've retired from much of this, but Dairy Goats have returned to our pastures. We have chosen Nubian Dairy goats from high quality SHOW herds that PUT MILK IN YOUR BUCKET! We will sell stock from time to time. We do have some dairy goats now, we're enjoying their milk and making some cheeses which is available AT THE FARM ONLY from April through November 15th each year. The goats are fed an organic grain mix, herbs and seeds. They eat 'no-spray' alfalfa daily and are given no-spray grass hay in the winter and in their night pen. They spend their days on grass from April through November.

Two Dairy Bull calves are raised on our grass per year. The are purchased from our local 'grass-fed' dairy in March, raised on dulited goats milk and put out on our rotational pasture until November when they are butchered locally and made available. We will have some individual cuts but prefer to sell quarters. Seven quarters will be available each year.

We are thrilled with our raised bed gardening system which we fill with herbs and vegetables this spring and share from our bounty.

The daylily beds are in full growth and this fall we'll be potting some up to winter over in the greenhouse along with some spare hostas we have growing here and there.

We've retired our old hens as they were quite old. Twenty-five new chicks will be placed in our portable chicken tractor in a week or so for a few weeks before going to the newly redecorated chicken house. We will have chickens, fed organic grains (hoping for no soy) and running the yards, laying multi-colored eggs by March 2011. We have Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks, and Ameracaunas.

Our farm is being set up to feed our family with the extras shared here, at the Nebraska City Farmers Market and from the farm. Email us for details or questions at [email protected] or visit our website at www.QuietWatersFarm.com

Highlights this Month
We are busy putting the garden to bed, moving the currants and gooseberries to a more sunny location and creating some new garden beds to expand out operations. Hoping it all gets done in time! Fall is here and before you know it the snow will be flying and we'll be looking at seed catalogs again! We are making our teas again and this time many of the tea ingredients we grew ourselves or wild harvested. We know you'll enjoy our tea blends.
