At Fox Hill Bruderhof, Jason and Maureen Swinger got inspired to build a farmstand. Then the pandemic hit. Would anyone show up? Discover Coleman Corners, featured in the spring Plough Quarterly: www.plough.com/en/topics/comm...

I love how you milled your own lumber to build this awesome farm stand! We will be homesteading in Idaho, and with the price of lumber now, this is an awesome solution! God has gifted us with lots of timber on the land❤️

Great folks at Fox Hill!! We are neighbors on nearby Knapp Lane and just realized near the end of last season they had opened a farmstand on Coleman Rd., so we only had an opportunity to stop by a couple times before they closed; looking forward to this season!!

I’m only just learning to understand your way of life so hope you don’t mind answering questions? 1) is everything on your farm stand grown / made by people on the community? 2) do you sell your produce to people outside of your community? If you are a community member do you just take things for free? I have many many material possessions but I am definitely not as rich as you and I really hope I can come and see one of your communities for myself one day.

It is lovely! I love little farm stands with home made things! It reminds me of Oma's coffee stand!

Great work Swinger family. And Maureen, your write-up about the farm stand in the latest Plough Quarterly was really well written. I loved the touches of humor throughout.

I'm not surprised that people were ready to shop for healthy food, and handmade items. It was sweet to see the photos of people sitting and visiting, something many of us were missing in the pandemic. They had a great idea, and I'm glad it was so successful.

This is absolutely wonderful!! But, because I live where fruit trees are a major source of our local nutrition, i am wondering where are all the fruit and nut trees? Even growing them in long rows at the edge of the arable acreage would be a good thing?

There were pick-your-own cherry tomatoes last year. This year we'll expand a little, and see if we can talk the neighboring blueberry-patch owners into an open-patch day!
