 Nestled in the rolling hills of northwest Missouri, our family's century farm hosts TableTop Farms. As a woman-owned and family-operated venture, we take pride in our seed-to-table approach. Growing over 50 varieties of Certified Naturally Grown vegetables and herbs yield flavorful and nutrient-dense produce thats healthy for your family. We collaborate with nature, fostering healthy soils abundant with life through thoughtfully managed fertilizers and compost. This creates a thriving habitat for beneficial earthworms, nematodes, and other soil organisms. Our animals thrive through regenerative practices, contributing to the healing of our land. Our South Pole cattle graze exclusively on grass, while our farrow-to-finish hogs, meat birds, and egg layers also enjoy pasture life. They're supplemented with organic grains and any garden scraps they fancy. We love talking about growing food, food education, and nurturing community connections. Join us at the Brookside Farmers Market, Lenexa Farmers Market, or Overland Park Farmers Market. You can also explore our website at tabletopfarmsmo.com.  It all started in 2010. Born out of a desire to create a healthy soda alternative for me and my children, I began brewing kombucha in my kitchen. As I shared my kombucha and the changes in my health, ( including getting off all my medications) with friends and family, word of mouth began to spread about the amazing healing powers of my kombucha. With order requests increasing each week, I began to run out of counter space at home and Saturday afternoon customer pickups often led to lines out her front door. To keep up with demand, I began to sell at the farmers markets where I was approached by a local retailer looking to place my kombucha on their store shelves. In 2015, with orders in hand, I went into the bottling business, opening a small manufacturing facility and taproom. As distribution increased beyond the local Kansas City market, I soon outgrew my operation and in 2018, moved into a much larger, brand new manufacturing facility and taproom where we continue to grow today. Currently, Tea-Biotics Kombucha is sold in over 700 retail locations in 17 states and home to the World’s Largest Kombucha Taproom with 48 flavors on tap!

The Natural Farmacy KC is a sustainable, organic-practice urban farm operated by Dhan Rai, a graduate of the New Roots for Refugees farm business training program. In addition to selling at the Overland Park Farmer's Market, the farm also offers a CSA farm share program that includes full and half-season share options, supplies wholesale accounts, and now also produces cut flowers for sale to the public. The Natural Farmacy sites are located in the KCK urban core and have been a great opportunity to connect with the community and make productive use of under utilized vacant land and bring fresh produce to our neighbors. Farmer Dhan is excited to bring his years of agricultural experience from the field to your table! Sarah and Nicolás García both came to urban farming in roundabout ways. Sarah studied horticulture at JCCC in 2006-2008 and Nicolás studied how the world was broken at KU 2004-2008. While at KU Nicolás found peace in his vegetable gardens and guerrilla growing operations and after leaving KU Nicolás organized The Guild of Guerrilla Growers and later Anti-Hero Farms Edible Landscaping. In 2013 Sarah and Nicolás acquired the land they cultivate and established Treehouse Urban Farm in Waldo neighborhood of KCMO. They raise Indian Runner ducks, bees, native plants, berries, herbs, greens, mushrooms, and a rotating variety of annuals and edible flowers.

Wild Alive is a woman owned and operated small business established in 2015 and operating out of Lawrence, KS. We partner with local area farmers in the Douglas, Johnson and Jefferson county region to preserve fruit & vegetables and utilize the immunities in the local community’s soil. Produce seconds that would otherwise be composted or thrown out are used to create nutrient rich products like sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, miso & hot sauce. The process stays the same but the produce varies by what is seasonally available each month of the harvest. A wild fermentation process is used to create these zippy products, no vinegar or starter cultures found here, only salt & the bacteria that is naturally occurring on the produce. This process creates a probiotic rich environment that allows nutrients to become more readily available for the body’s absorption. Our mission is to share our love of the deeply ancient and cultural practice of fermentation with others. To bring a new level of nutrition, passion, and magic into people's lives. You can find us at several area farmers markets, retail grocery stores, farm stores and at some of your favorite local restaurants.
