Millsap Farms is run by Curtis and Sarah Millsap, along with a host of co-farmers, apprentices, interns, and farmhands. Located just north of Springfield Missouri, we've been here 17 years, grow 2.5 acres of vegetables and cut flowers on our 25 acre farm using organic practices, with about 1/3 of that under cover, and primarily sell through our 250 member CSA and at one big farmers market a week. We also are very involved with our extended community, hosting lots of tours, educational events, and a 250+person wood-fired pizza event once a week from May to October. We love growing the biodiversity of our farm, including perennial hedgerows, cover crops, large scale flower plantings, orchards, and lots of edges.
