Farm Fresh Meat & Produce - Trent & Jackie Sparrow
We are a small family farm located near Dwight, IL. We currently raise Berkshire Pork Meat, Goat & Lamb Meat, and Heirloom vegetables. We sell wholesale to chefs in Chicago, Evanston, Aurora, and Westmont, IL.
We both have farm life backgrounds - you could say it's part of our heritage. Jackie grew up on the farm that we now own, while Trent spent summers on a cousin's farm. Over the years, we have raised many different animals including dairy goats, pygmy goats, Duroc sows, chickens, feeder pigs, Dorsett sheep, calves and cattle. We also raised our kids, and now it's time for the grandkids to join us and learn all about farm life too!

Life on Catalpa Grove Farm
All in a days work! From sunrise to sunset, life abounds on the farm. And so does work! Besides the normal feeding and care of the animals, there is planting & weeding & harvesting the garden, baling hay, sheering sheep, fixing tractors, hauling manure, and so much more. It's busy and hard work, but at the end of the day, it's a wonderful job to have!
