Welcome to our website!
| Who We Are Bauer in German means Farmer. We are farmers for the 6th generation, second generation in CA. Having been born into a family that for generations that has shown great appreciation for the earth and all the blessings God has bestowed upon us we strive to be an ecologically friendly farm that firmly believes in being good stewards of the land. Growing food does not require a specific educational degree, although some of us do. Our ancestral heritage comes from the tending of plants and animals and with a little observation and much will be rediscovered and applied in this lifetime. |

| The growing of food is not only a neglected profession but also a lost art. The diminishing numbers of family farms in this country is testimony to our growing reliance on large-scale agri-business. We are shamefully dependent and extremely vulnerable in this situation. As world resources diminish, we must ask ourselves “Who will feed us, who will feed our children?”
We pride ourselves in choosing our vegetable varieties only according to their superb flavor, not length of shelf life. As a family, we have often had larger than normal family gardens, sharing what we produced with neighbors and friends. Now as an extension of what we have done for years, we offer a bit of our farming experience to you and the opportunity to become our neighbor and friend. We are located in Snelling, a small farming community along the Merced River, in the Central Valley of California . |
