Welcome to Quaker Hill Farm!
A Rare Breed & Educational Farm
At Quaker Hill Farm, located in Harrisville, Michigan, pasture-based farming has resulted in
wholesome, chemical free produce available throughout the year - since 1985.
There is a growing public concern for the over-chemicalized commercial standards in meat processing
and produce production. Quaker Hill Farm offers chemical free, hormone free, eco-friendly alternatives
based on ethical family farming, raising pasture-fed animals and chemical-free farm produce which
bring together harmonious farming practices for those who are searching for products that support
ecologically conscious life styles. We are an integral part of Alcona County's vigorous and growing
low impact, sustainable agriculture community that produces high quality seasonal farm products in
and for our Alcona region.
We specialize in raise heritage breed livestock and heirloom
variety produce. It is part of our commitment to stewardship to assist with the conservation
of rare breeds and provide educational information to visitors. We are members of the American
Livestock Breeds Conservancy.
We endeavour to educate visitors about the healthful benefits of a chemical free life-style and diet
so they might enjoy the best health possible. We encourage consumers to buy local, eat healthy and
support Michigan producers!
We offer 100% chemical-free, GMO free, pasture-raised meats & farm produce,

The Quaker Farm Shoppe provides an opportunity for area residents and visitors to personally visit,
explore and purchase a wide variety of our farm produced products. Look for our online store to open soon for the
convience of placing orders over the Internet. Note: Quaker Farm Shoppe is closed for renovation. We hope
to be open in July 2008. Please call or e-mail for updates.
We are thrilled to announce that in April 2008 our barn was selected for the Alcona County Quilt
Trail Project! We will 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 plan to have a small historical display featuring information about the history of the
Underground Railroad. We are very grateful to the Hollyhock Quilt Shoppe in Harrisville, Michigan
for their founding and ongoing support of the Alcona County Quilt Trail Project, and their contribution to
the Underground Railroad historical display at Quaker Hill Farm.
The Pioneer School of Homesteading Simple Living Skills Workshops

opportunity to learn simple living skills such as soap making, fiber craft, spinning, cooking, canning, cheese making, meat processing, homestead crafts, fundamental farm carpentry, handyman basics and much more.
Closed 1st Days (Sundays).
