more than a farm

At the foundation of the “More Than a Farm” vision is the utilization of a farm as a means to develop and share practices that honor the earth and the interconnectedness  of all living things. Our greater goal is to create a movement that goes beyond our farm, and serves as a model to build more resilient, caring, and sustainable communities in the northeast Ohio region and beyond. 

Thanks for an awesome Summer - 2025 Farm Camp!

Thanks to Jack Shea and his crew from Fox News 8 for coming out to do a story about our situation! After the judge determined that our educational programming does qualify as agritourism, Bainbridge Township has decided to appeal that decision. This makes it harder for us to resolve the remaining fire code citations with the fire inspector continuing to claim that he is not qualified to inspect the buildings for which he issued those citations. Go to Public Awareness Campaign for updates and to learn more.

Kelly’s Working Well Farm is an educational permaculture farm dedicated to the community. We raise a wide variety of animals, and grow a diverse array of perennial fruit and nut trees and shrubs, plus herbs and an annual vegetable garden. The farm also showcases several structures using local materials and natural building techniques. 

Sign up for the More Than a Farm/Kelly’s Working Well Farm newsletter below to keep updated on farm events, activities, initiatives and collaborations.

We are open to the public year round to host your agriculturally oriented organization, activity or event. Whether it’s a farm tour, an educational workshop presented by farm staff or other members of the community, or your own programming, contact Kelly (kellyworkingwell@gmail.com) to make arrangements. 

Some of the activities available at the farm are: seasonal harvesting and processing of berries, medicinal weeds, herbs, flowers, fiber, meat (chicken, lamb and pork); making jams, tinctures, salves; spinning fiber into yarn or cordage, basket weaving; plant propagation; mushroom cultivation; “herding” chickens and collecting eggs; and much more! Contact us to arrange a tour or activity for your family or group. 

Through our partnerships with like-minded organizations we are dedicated to building a more beautiful, healthy, inspiring community.
