Peasants' Plot is run by husband and wife Todd and Julia McDonald. They
conceived of "the Plot" while living in Chicago and moved to farmland in 2007.
Since then, they've sold to Chicago farmers markets and to a small, growing
group of CSA members.
Peasants' Plot caters their CSA to individuals, using
staple vegetables and recipes for one or two people. The vegetables are:
salad
mixes, lettuce, radishes, arugula, spinach, chard, kale, kohlrabi, beets,
broccoli, onions, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, zucchini, squash, cucumbers,
peppers, garlic, dill, chives, cilantro and basil.
If you are someone looking
to learn more about farming, Todd works with 3-4 interns every year and about 20
worker shareholders out in the field. To learn more and to download an
application for the worker shareholder program, visit www.peasantsplot.com.
