Fyler Farms has been in the family for 6 generations. Originally settled by Jeremy’s grandmother’s grandpa, a German immigrant in 1902 who utilized the Homestead Act in Kansas. The farm has its roots in wheat and livestock farming and continues today as Jeremy operates his own extension with his partner John. Jeremy and John took the leap into their own farm in 2020. Each decision they have made has been with sustainability at the core. Each upgrade, change, and routine decision is based on what is within their limits and what will best serve the community. The farm is 31 acres, with 11 head of cattle, 2 goats, 2 sheep, chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese, and guineas. Jeremy and John also operate a small local “micro-mill” (think micro-brewery) and commercial kitchen, which they use to be a fully functioning site for cleaning, milling, sifting, and packaging raw flours and baking mixes. The farm works in a circular way where they source grains from neighboring organic and regenerative farms. They then process the flour onsite, and the 20% waste is used as a supplement to their livestock grass and hay. Comments are closed.
