K7 Farm – “That Teaching Farm”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are a multi-purpose family farm in Concord, MI.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are <\/strong>dedicated to preserving old fashioned skills by teaching them to others!  We offer a variety of homesteading classes and workshops.  We are also passionate about growing produce for our family and yours, without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizer – engaging the soil food web to produce healthy soil that will grow healthy plants.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My (late) husband, Bret Kostyu, passed away late 2024.\u00a0 Our homesteading way of life will continue, and I will get back to my passion of teaching.\u00a0 As we pick up the pieces and move forward with our new normal, I will be making changes to the website, as much of it is outdated.\u00a0 I appreciate your patience, as the website is not top priority at this time.\u00a0 You will find me posting much more regularly on Facebook, you are welcome to follow me (Sarah Kostyu), and\/or the farm.\u00a0 We have a subscription based group on facebook where I share recipes, tutorials, and exclusive content for those who are interested.\u00a0 Just visit the facebook farm page and hit ‘subscribe’<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here at K7 Farm, our. mission is to grow good food, God’s way, for our family and yours and share our passions with you through our services, classes and workshops.  Just as much as you probably want to get to know us as your farmer, we want to get to know our customers as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love to answer questions and brainstorm with others who wish to become more self sufficient.  We know the many ways a self sufficient lifestyle has benefited our family.   I cook our meals from scratch, grow a very large garden, preserve the excess, save seeds from our garden, raise animals for our table and butcher them on-site, hunt, and also enjoy soapmaking, sewing, and useful crafting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Like” us on Facebook for farm updates, class schedules, sales information and more!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We aim to be faithful, successful stewards of the land and animals God has given us, and bring honor and glory to Him in our lives, business practices, farming practices and outreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
