Wood Farm is a certified organic 500 acre hay and pasture farm, which supplies hay to regional dairies and beef to local restaurants. They also grow organic corn, organic wheat, produce, and keep bees. See the farm's rotational pastures, Angus herd, and haying equipment, and learn the techniques and systems the Wood family uses to manage each segment of the operation. Learn about how they have partnered with other landowners in the area, including the Fort Wayne airport, to increase their base acreage.

Food truck client, Bravas Specialty Burgers, will be on-site and open after the tour.
