2025 Eastside Farmers’ Market Vendors
Bauman’s Natural Meats
The Baumans enjoy eating simple foods without a lot of strange unpronounceable chemicals in them. That is the way the meats are brought to you.
The crops are homegrown and fed to the animals. No genetically modified grains are used nor are insecticides. Natural “fertilizer” from the animals is preferred over using harsh commercial chemical fertilizers, as well as crop rotation to keep the fields healthy and fertile. The Baumans consider their meats natural. That means no antibiotics or artificial implanted hormones are used in the production of the animals. Cows are on pasture; pigs out in the open air and sunshine, and all chickens are free range, including the egg laying hens. They are well cared for and healthy. Animals are processed in local area processing plants. You are getting just meat, no fillers or extra water. The processors are instructed to make sure the meat products are lean without being too dry.

Blue Skies Farm
Blue Skies Farm was founded in 1991 by Paul and Louise Maki, then as a means to show that small scale agriculture is viable. Now 33 years later we are very much a success! Blue Skies grows using organic and bio-dynamic methods and was Certified Organic from 1993 through 2006, until we chose to not support the current program. Our primary crops are raspberries (pre-picked and U-pick) asparagus, and concord grapes.

Down Home Farm
Down home farm is a small family farm, Jesse Downs, Liz Voz, and our four boys, Otto, Ivan, and Leland, and Harlan. We raise peaches in high tunnels (the only folks in the upper Midwest to do this, as far as I know). We also have an apple orchard with about thirty varieties of heirloom and modern apples, including Honeycrisp. We also raise garlic and sorghum and make old fashioned sorghum syrup.
In addition, we raise a few acres of open pollinated and feed out some hogs for meat and most years we have small square bales of straw and hat for sale. We are not certified organic, but are committed to natural growing processes and use no GMOs or antibiotics, and no herbicides or pesticides not approved for organic use. We sell or products at the Viroqua Farmers Market and to local people and businesses. We try to mix old fashioned elbow grease and old iron with the best new science and innovations, and have fun doing it!

ORIGIN Breads bakes small batches of naturally-leavened, long-fermented breads with Wisconsin-grown and stone-milled organic wheat and grains. We’re proud to source our organic wheat, rye, spelt, buckwheat and corn locally from Lonesome Stone Milling in Lone Rock, Wisconsin. Thanks to Lonesome Stone's small community of local farmers, we can tell you the name of the farmer who grew the wheat for every bag of flour we use. ORIGIN Breads makes a variety of loaves, but for the Eastside Farmers’ Market we’ll be featuring our focaccia and flatbreads. Our naturally-leavened round focaccia has a moist, chewy crumb filled with irregular holes and bookended by a crispy, olive-oily crust. To make our flatbreads, we use a smaller portion of our focaccia dough and flatten it out so it resembles a pizza more than a loaf of bread. Seasonal and local toppings vary throughout the market season.

Root to Bloom
I am honored to work among the community of farmers at The Farley Center in Verona and to grow flowers on this beautiful land. Before moving to Dane County in 2005, I attended Michael Fields Agricultural Institute in East Troy, WI where I learned the ins and outs of growing organic and biodynamic produce. Since then I’ve worked on a few organic farms in the area, until 2021 when I was invited to follow my heart and grow flowers at Winterfell Acres, and launch Root to Bloom, a cut flower community supported agriculture (CSA) business.
I live with a teenage daughter who teaches me a ton about how to show up in the world. I also work at a local restaurant as a prep cook turned kitchen administrator, as well as sporadically teach people how to drive. I am interested in creating more beauty in our world through flowers, relationships and creativity. I am in the phase of growing my business, which is exciting and terrifying! In addition to a CSA, I sell to local restaurants and businesses, and, as you know, at the delightful Eastside Farmers Market!
