Farmstead Cropping & Livestock
...........We are a family farm that began with the goal of being self sufficient, appreciating the land, nature and raising our animals in a natural environment that is stress free and humane. To not waste what nature has to offer, improve and enhance the farm while producing top quality farm direct products.
Our farming operations include several different species, we raise Scottish highland cattle selected for their hardiness and their care of the land, free ranging chickens that provide both meat and eggs, a flock of heritage bred turkeys that lay and hatch future meat turkeys, pork and the honey bees.
We are also the proud home of Maplewinds Clydesdales. We breed, show and enjoy our Clydesdales and use them in a our farming operation.
Besides Ibby, Bess and I, every member of my family is involved. It would not be without them.
The rest of the crew includes my sons Ben, James and Byron, Their ladies and children along with my husband Tom.
I can not single out an area and say this one does this or that. We do it together and that is what makes it great. We work, we laugh and we learn side by side..........

Farmstead & Cropping

Dave and Michelle Glenn own and operate Connemara Farm in Hawks, MI and Chicory Cafe in Rogers City.  We are a true Farm to Table operation owning and operating both ends of the food chain; what we can't supply ourselves, we strive to source our cafe products as locally as possible to support our local economy.   Connemara Farm produces chemical free vegetables, fruits and laying chickens.  Connemara Farm was started in 1997 when Dave moved to Presque Isle County to serve as County Extension Director.  Michelle joined the farm in 2007 following her work in Africa working for FAO of the UN and more recently MSU.

We strive to practice sustainable production of food and fiber to supply food for the cafe as well as multiple markets.  We recently put up a 34x96 hoop house the extend our growing season.  We have also implemented several other practices such as native pollinator plots to attract and maintain native bees and pollinators, a rain garden to manage rain runoff,  permaculture plantings, and follow organic standards.
