Our Story We started our farm in 2001 in a very small
space to grow flowers, herbs, fruit, vegetables, and
perennials for the local markets around St. Charles,
Illinois. We named the farm Erehwon after a mythical
place where most everything was backwards: we were
surrounded with large farms growing crops for distant
markets using large doses of chemical fertilizers and
pesticides. We, on the other hand wanted to be small, to
grow in an environmentally friendly way for local
markets. Hence the name Erehwon.
