Our Story
Luke and I (Binta) started our journey together in 2016. We traveled around for work and in 2018 we moved back to Quincy, IL. During the start of the pandemic we had the opportunity to buy our forever home between Quincy and Payson. We started off with a drive to become more self-sufficient, building a large garden and greenhouse, planting fruit trees, starting a Katahdin sheep herd, and eventually an apiary with 9 hives,
We are still growing and making changes. We are selling flowers, soap, and honey regularly at farmers markets. We are selling dahlia tubers, shipping around the country. We have started a flower subscription and have personalized arrangements available for delivery or pickup for special occasions. We have been humbled by the support of our community and look forward to more growth in the coming years at Sweet Land Farm.
Where to find us
You can find us at the farmers market every Saturday. We make sure to announce the specific days we will be there on our Facebook page, so you can easily stay informed. Additionally, we have a farmstand that will be open during flower season, with regular hours for your convenience. We also host occasional pop-up events throughout the season. Our most popular service is the "Make Your Own Bouquet" experience, which we strive to make as simple and enjoyable as possible for everyone.
