Welcome! We’re Sam and Britta, and we operate Small Talk Farm on leased land in St. Ignatius, MT

We grow certified organic produce, flowers, and seed for market and wholesale

Our Practices

Our goal is to grow delicious produce that feeds all our communities: humans, animals, pollinators, microorganisms, water, and soil.

Our farm is Certified Organic under the State of Montana Department of Agriculture.

We practice regenerative agriculture. We till infrequently, plant cover crops, rotate our crops, grow pollinator plants, utilize companion planting, and use drip irrigation to conserve water.
