The Stand

The original Farm Stand was a small garage. In 2002 the garage was relocated to serve as a camp near the pond and a new stand was built. We grow a succession of vegetables during the growing season in an effort to have a consistent supply of fresh vegetables for your table. Vegetables are harvested several times daily and are quickly cooled on the refrigerated display cases or walk-in cooler.

Stutzman's Farm Bakery

In 2002 when the new farm stand was constructed a bakery was also added. Everything is made fresh daily from scratch, 'just like Grandma used to make'. We use our own fruit for the pies, assorted pastries, jams, and jellies. Even the beans for our baked beans are locally grown!

Oatmeal, challah, and white bread are available daily by the half or full loaf. We're famous for our fresh strawberry bread. Pies include strawberry rhubarb, raspberry, blueberry, apple, and fruit medley. Our assorted pastries include jumbo whoppee pies and jumbo molasses or chocolate chip cookies. Jams and jellies are available year round. Varieties include raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, berry medley, and apple pie jam. Our newest jam, is pepper jam, made using our own hungarian hot peppers. Pickles by the pint include bread and butter, dill, and zucchini relish.
