About Willowick Farm
Willowick Farm is a permaculture-based family farm in North Saint Louis County, integrating animals, natives, perennials, and annuals into a water-conscious, food-producing system. They pasture-raise meat chickens, turkeys, ducks, Mangalitsa pigs, and goats. Their intensive rotation of animals helps to build rich, healthy soil. They utilize holistic no-till practices in the garden and orchard beds.

About our Farm Tour Series
Our 2026 Farm Tour Series gives you the chance to visit your local farms in person, get a realistic look at what goes into creating the food you place on your tables, and get to know the real people who produce that food. This series of events showcases the diversity of working farms in the greater St Louis region, including vegetables, livestock, mushrooms, fruits, flowers, and more! The price of your ticket honors a local farmer’s time and expertise, helps them to diversify their revenue, and supports Known & Grown’s ability to continue to offer farmer-focused, community-oriented programming. This is a family-friendly event and a great outing for visitors of all ages, abilities, and interests. All are welcome.
