Farmers Markets Starting in May
Backyard Acres at Flying Tractor Farm is your Door County destination for farm-fresh produce, eggs, and meat. We use organic practices paired with education and a year-long farm stand. We are much more than that. We are also a family. Miranda Hottenroth, mother of four, is an enthusiastic supporter of all good food, dating back to 2015 when she realized that organic produce had a significant impact on the neurological and emotional well-being of her children. Miranda’s family is one with special needs and abilities. Within her immediate family, there is autism, a minor traumatic brain injury, and development effects due to heavy metal toxins.
Miranda relocated from Sheboygan to Sturgeon Bay to lease Flying Tractor Farm as Backyard Acres. Today, Miranda's mission in life is to care for others by feeding them and to create a sustainable way for her family to support itself.
