I grew up on a farm in rural Kalona. While my dad farmed only part time, it was enough to give me a real love and desire for farming full time. Since those growing up years I’ve been acquiring the necessary skills, knowledge, and equipment to make a farm run. The icing on the cake being an apprenticeship with Polyface Inc., a world-renowned farm for ecologically sound, community based, and family friendly farming practices.
I seek to minister to the food needs of the Iowa City and surrounding areas using these same farming practices. I’ve embarked on my own entrepreneurial farming saga. Producing clean, healthy, and nutritious food that is so good it just jumps off the plate and slaps you in the face. I implement practices that restore land, environment, and community.
My goal is to create a farm that provides for people’s needs in a way that is best for the land, animals, water quality, environment, producer, consumer, and community as a whole. My farm is the positive food alternative in a time when food quality is on the decline. You’re always welcome here, and when you come I hope you can see firsthand my farm mission:
<span>To provide farm products that nurture my customers and enhance our community using farming practices that care for creation. </span>

Galen Bontrager: Hello! I am Galen Bontrager from Galen Bontrager Farm based out of Wellman, Iowa and we are looking at how to assemble a chicken pen today. We are on about the last step here, we are assembling the front cover frame that we have and we will get this frame put together and have chicken wire on it. We have - I have kind of set it out already, laid out my pieces, so ripped one by six's again and these can be ripped in third, this particular part of the frame. We have a little different length here as this was 46 in our back end out of eight inches, our width wise pieces; I have it a little bit over 49 at least or 50 so that it can rest on the top of this frame and this way I make it little bit longer, is actually 52. So I will just go around with my frame laid out like this; it's kind of set right how I want it and I will fasten this together and just go right around in this way. I do the basic square part of the frame first; next I put in my cross brace piece, one screw is sufficient there for our cross bracing. So now our frame with the front covers assembled and we are ready for our last step to put the chicken wire on the cover.
