Seeds of Sustainability

Nestled in the coastal foothills of Monmouth, Birdsong Farm is a small family homestead dedicated to growing and raising natural foods. Artists Andy and Miranda Rommel transformed the 17-acre property, creating a habitat for diverse plants and creatures. Birdsong Farm offers free-range duck eggs, pasture-raised chickens, and a small CSA of chemical-free produce.
