Meet the Lake House Farm
Hello!
We’re Sydney and Ewa, and we’ve been friends for more than a decade. After years of home gardening, learning about flowers, patroning farmers’ markets, and dreaming of ways to beautify the land, we decided it was time to combine our skills and bring our vision to life.
We broke ground at the Lake House Farm in May 2024. We’re so excited you’re here!

Our Mission and Values
We prioritize regenerative agriculture practices and value our connection to the land. We use low-till, pollinator friendly garden practices. We’re dedicated to our families, our customers, and our local community.

Why Regenerative Agriculture?
Regenerative agriculutre is an approach to farming that strives to actively restore nature in the process. We like to think of it as an interconnected web that benefits all entities: the soil, the water, the air, the beings, and the people in and around it.
Specifically, we work to improve the soil health, increase biodiversity, reduce synthetic and harmful chemical usage, and support pollinators and other beneficial beings. This allows us to grow strong, healthy blooms while feeling pride in our commitment to the land.
