The Sunflower Market &
Gathering Space
We are excited to offer Clarkston and surrounding communities a hub for locally grown natural and organic produce, artisan goods and more (yes, we are like a year-round mini farmer’s market)! Our market is our welcome center, an extension of our non-profit educational farm and helps to support our ongoing programming, provide a community meeting and gathering space, create opportunities to teach children about where their food comes from and connect Clarkston with locally grown produce and our amazing artisans! When you shop at our Sunflower Market, it is a win-win, because not only are you supporting local farmers and artisans, but all proceeds go right back into supporting outdoor education for kids! This unique farm/educational market space is yours to enjoy- come by and see what we have to offer!
Now Open Regular Season Hours!
We are now open Wednesday, Thursday & Friday from 10 am – 6 pm for our regular seasonal hours.
You are welcome to visit our farm during open market hours. When visiting, please be sure to sign-in at our Sunflower Market and Welcome Center so we know you are here, and to get the latest updates on our farm happenings, and especially, our animals!

2024 Summer CSA is Here!
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs are designed to offer a partnership with your local farm. This innovative system allows members of the community to support sustainable agriculture by committing to, not only local farming, but a non-profit farm for kids! Here at the Clarkston Family Farm, our mission is to get kids outside and educate them about the value of nature, healthy food, and sustainable farming. Your weekly support helps our team offset the many risks that are involved in organic farming and you are able to reap the benefits of a delicious and bountiful harvest all season long! By choosing to partner with the Clarkston Family Farm (CFF) your investment in us also supports nature-based educational experiences for kids of all ages and abilities, regardless of access to resources. Also, a portion of our CSA program goes right back into feeding families with food insecurity. Thank you for your collaboration. You know WE DIG IT!
This 12-week partnership runs from June 12th – September 4th (no pickup week of July 3rd). Pickup will be at the farm Wednesdays, 11 AM – 6 PM.
