Slow Money NE Kansas - Winners 2014 - Bauman's Cedar Valley Farms GARNETT, KS
The Baumans bought 180-acre Cedar Valley Farms in 2001. They raise pastured poultry and eggs employing organic practices, along with 100% grass-fed beef, and operate the only USDA-approved and certified poultry processor in Kansas. Due to faith practices, the Bauman family uses telephones but not the Internet. In the crowded online marketing world, they are unique – the Baumans deal primarily face-to-face.
Rosanna Bauman, the farm’s operations manager, writes a weekly column for www.Amish365.com. You can read all of Rosanna's wonderful work at www.amish365.com/category/plain-kansas/
