For over 2 decades, Quaker Hill Farm has specialized in
raising heritage breed livestock and heirloom
variety produce. Part of their commitment to stewardship
is assisting with the conservation
of rare breeds and providing educational information about sustainable living
through
lectures, classes and online videos, and online articles about a wide rang of homesteading topics.
Located in Harrisville, Michigan, Quaker Farm has been
producing high
quality seasonal
farm products since 1985 and has been an integral part
of Alcona County's
vigorous low impact sustainable agricultural community.
Though the scope of farming efforts has narrowed,
Quaker Farm continues to be a resource of homesteading and small
farming information
offering classes and education through various workshops and online
educational videos and How-To articles.
We encourage consumers to buy local, eat healthy and
support Michigan producers!

Earth Day at Quaker Farm
Earth Day at Quaker Farm, a Quaker inspirational video, was created to share the importance of sustainable
living choices as they relate to climate
change. Our earth is precious and we need to take better care of it. We hope our Earth Day video
inspires you to cherish
the planet we share. Please pass it on, we hope it can be of use to others, especially perhaps
elementary school teachers and home schooling families. Viewers especially like the horse birth and the
muscovy duck hatching from an egg!
The Quaker Farm barn is a host site for a Alcona County Quilt
Trail Project. We have a 8'x8' quilt block with the "North Star"
design to commemorate the life-saving work of the
Underground Railroad which the State of Michigan and Quakers played major roles in.
We have a small historical and educational Underground Railroad quilt display.
Our thanks to the Hollyhock Quilt Shoppe in Harrisville,
Michigan
for founding and support of the Alcona County Quilt Trail Project
and their contribution to
the Underground Railroad quilt display at Quaker Farm.
Closed 1st Days (Sundays).
