Heartland Family Farm products are available at the Bloomington Community Farmers’ Market, the Bloomington Winter Farmers’ Market, Bloomingfoods, many local restaurants, and through Core Farms CSA. Heartland offers wonderful European and heirloom varieties of spring, summer, fall and winter fruits and vegetables. They concentrate on varieties that provide excellent ?avor and are not often found in the general market.

“We grow on naturally fertile land using organic principles,” explains Teresa A. Birtles, who was a founder and has served as board president of the Local Growers Guild. “All aspects of our farm are lovingly tended by me and my three daughters, Sarah, Jessica, and Emily. Our goal is not only to provide wonderful produce, eggs, and watercress for our customers, but also to nurture and sustain our land. We offer gardeners’ seed, fertilizer and related supplies through our partner agricultural organization, Nature’s Crossroads. Our commitment is to work hard to regenerate and sustain our natural environment, our communities, and our farm families.”
