Good Earth Organic Farm began in 1984. A 175-acre property deep in the heart of northeast Texas. (a.k.a. cotton country)
​
We offer fresh, organic produce, as well as grass-fed, pasture-raised lamb. We realize staying conscious of our ecosystem helps preserve this planet for future generations, so our plants, pastures, and livestock have never been treated with pesticides, herbicides, or other toxic chemicals.
“Some of us grew up playing with tractors, the lucky ones still do.”
​
When I bought this farm in 1984, I decided to go organic. Later on, I realized sustainability goes hand in hand with organic practices. You have to feed the soil to feed the plants. Using cover crops and grazing animals is key in my growing system. Moreover, I opened up my farm to the customers so that they could see for themselves, the sustainable organic growing practices I use. Because you got to know the folks who grow your food.
It takes you a couple of years to figure out how to grow organically, and it takes you a couple more years to figure out how to sell it. It takes even more years to make it sustainable. However, I feel putting this farm together and making it successful is my passion and purpose.

I love dogs, a good meal, a cold Shiner, and good friends.
