We are a family-owned business in rural Iowa—Iowa County to be exact! From 2000 – 2019, many of you became part of our family each and every Saturday morning from May to October as we sold our metal creations at the Des Moines Downtown Farmers’ Market.  Things changed after the 2020 pandemic,  we continued to travel to Des Moines, but only a few times during the farmers’ market season.  We also participated in the Cedar Rapids Downtown Farmers’ Market from 2008-2025.  Beginning 2026, we made the decision to no longer travel on Saturdays to the farmers’ markets; however, you will still find us at shows around the Midwest and right here on our family farm outside Victor, Iowa.

Since 2021, we have hosted a farmers’ market on our farm – Homegrown Grace!  This event is generally held the 3rd Saturday of September from 9:00 am until 2:00 pm.  We like to call it “Fall on the Farm” which includes local makers, music, food trucks and much more.

If you are in the area, please stop by.  The Whistle Stop (coffee & bar) is generally open Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 am until 5:00 pm. and Saturdays 8:00 am until Noon.  We also host The Chicken Coop, our version of a “tea room”, for classy chicks to come and chat and chew – no white gloves, please.  This is a reservations only.
