Welcome to Videnovich Farms
The Videnovich family has been farming for centuries in Eastern Europe. The family first immigrated to Chicago in 1955 then our small clan moved to southwest Michigan in 1962. With a similar climate to our ancestral homeland, our family kept up the old world food tradition with the inclusion of orchards, vineyards, and lots of peppers.
The family farm has been growing produce for friends and family in Chicago who have limited growing space. Videnovich Farms has also been offering a CSA ("Community Supported Agriculture") since 2005 in the form of "subscription farming." Members are able to purchase weekly boxes of seasonal, quality vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers. Videnovich Farms grows with old world methods using minimal pesticides and labor-intensive hand weeding instead of chemical herbicides. The small flock of sheep produces a great source of fertilizer as well as the multiple compost piles that contribute to our attempts to create zero-waste (blame it on our frugal mentality).
We have been expanding to the farmers' market arena. We started with the Three Oaks (Michigan) Farmers' Market, then in 2007 moved on to the Logan Square Farmers' Market in Chicago. In 2009 we added the Wednesday night Andersonville Farmers' Market to our sales schedule and we're blessed to find dedicated customers who share our passion for food.
