We are a therapeutic day school. We have a garden club run by students. We sell Flowers, vegetable plants, fresh vegetables, and herbs.
Our management practices significantly exceed USDA organic standards. Tillage-based agriculture such as conventional industrial farming (and even most organic farms), that optimize for a low “sticker price,” rely on methods that create the need for potent synthetic fertilizers. Repeated tillage not only prevents accumulation of organic matter, but disrupts the entire subsurface ecosystem of microbes, insects, worms, and ground dwelling bees. We farm with hand tools and prioritize soil health to mitigate pest problems without the use of pesticides, hence our slogan: hand grown in living soil. Even beautiful-looking organic produce at the grocery store may not be as nutrient-dense as vegetables are supposed to be. Grocery store vegetables all come from large tillage-based farms — in soil that is barely alive. Our mission at Banford Road Farm is to maximize nutrient-density per acre, and that starts with the soil.
Look for : Lettuce heads, kale, rainbow chard, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, eggplant, beets, carrots, spinach, arugula, zucchini, bok choy, salad turnips, chives, scallions, rosemary, basil, cilantro, parsley, thyme, lavender, dill, tarragon, mint, sage
Banford Road Farm is a regenerative, no-till, human-powered farm. We are laser-focused on soil health and work to maintain ecological balance all across the property. We have one acre of vegetable production carved out inside of eight acres of woods. Lab data drives our soil regeneration through the use of a Haney soil test that verifies that we are in fact increasing subsurface carbon and building organic matter over time.
Our Story
Hi Everyone, my name is Stacey Blanton and my Husband Jack and I, in our 36th year of marriage, are growing a new chapter in our lives- Flower Farming in Woodstock, IL!
Throughout our years together, we have put ourselves out there and taken chances in business, but strictly in the plumbing industry. As we exit the plumbing business, which carries on with our children at the helm, we are becoming Flower Farmers!
Jack is the muscle and support behind the esthetic that I will create to present our products to our clients. Together we will work hard to create an experience to be had by all. We plan to stay current and relevant and look forward to new business relationships and friendships.
Please join us as we…

Our journey into growing microgreens began as an idea to improve the health of our family. Understanding that whole foods, fruits, and vegetables are the best source of nutrition, we realized that microgreens often contain even more essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants than fully grown produce. After growing our first batch of microgreens, we happily discovered that our whole family loved them, even our dog! That’s when we felt confident this adventure in microgreens could grow into something even more. 🌱 With lots of love, planning and practice, we expanded our growing operation to offer our delicious microgreens to you! We hope you enjoy them as much as we do and tell your friends and family about Green Appetit.

Yoga and bodywork have been Jennifer’s go-to solution for all her body’s needs, and minds ease. She offers a restorative approach to traditional vinyasa flows, and an intuitive touch to a therapeutic massage. Jennifer’s biggest takeaway from being a student and a client, is the importance of prioritizing what feels right for ones body in any given moment. Some days that will mean testing the limits, and other days that will look like choosing gentleness. Jennifer’s ultimate goal is to create a space for every individual to make empowering, nourishing choices on and off their mats!

For the past 3 decades I have been bringing my olive oil to the United States from Greece. Other oils cannot compare to the fruity, buttery and peppery taste of my own Greek oil. There is nothing else like it! My customers know the value of quality olive oil as an important ingredient in their healthy cooking. My Greek olive oil is 100% extra virgin, first cold-press, made from olives grown on trees on my family’s farm in Greece.
