Sippel Family Farm
Ben Sippel
Mt Gilead, Ohio

Ben and Lisa are the young couple that owns this 77-acre farm near Mt. Gilead.  Ben has known that farming and involvement in agriculture would be his chosen vocation since he was a teenager.  They purchased the farm in 2003 from a family that had owned it since 1953.  They live in the original farmhouse, which sits on a hill overlooking a creek.  Beyond the creek are acres of organically grown lettuce, tomatoes, squash, carrots, potatoes, beets, edamame, pumpkin and more.  They now manage their own CSA (Community Supported Agriculture Program) for 100 healthy eating members as well as selling at two markets weekly!
