Frequently Asked Questions
What products are available right now?
Our full range of products that are available throughout the course of the year are listed out in detail below. Everything we currently have available for sale right now is listed for purchase on our online farm store.
Do you grow/make/raise what you sell?
We sure do! Our small farm family works day in and day out to produce our wide range of products. We grow nutrient-dense vegetables, create handcrafted seasonings, and raise grass-fed lamb and organic chickens for our family and yours. We grow all crops within our 8 acres in a variety of setups: in-ground beds, large containers, raised beds, hügelkultur beds, and inside an unheated greenhouse. Our seasonings are crafted with the highest quality of ingredients — most of which originate from our farm. Our animals are loved and cared for, always given ample quality nutrition, plenty of clean water, green places to roam and graze, and lots of snuggles.
What all do you sell throughout the year?
At Orie’s Farm Fresh, we sell a variety of in-season veggies, roughly twenty kinds of garlic, black garlic, smoked garlic, handcrafted seasonings, grass-fed lamb, organic whole chickens, and assorted plants.
Besides garlic, vegetables we grow include leeks, arugula, kale, mixed greens, spinach, asparagus, beets, carrots, fennel, kohlrabi, radishes, turnips, cucumbers, green beans, okra, peppers, sugar snap peas, tomatoes, and zucchini.

Can I shop in person?
We know that some folks prefer shopping in person. To make the local food we grow and produce as accessible as possible, that’s why we offer options for both online ordering AND in-person shopping!

Where are you located?
Our address is 1805 N. 119th Street W., Wichita, KS 67235
We’re located on the west side of 119th, between Eberly Court and the Autumn Ridge sub development – almost half a mile south of 21st Street.
Can I come to your farm to buy things?
At this time, we do not have public “open” hours on our farm. Items may be purchased via the methods outlined on our Orders Page. Thank you for the interest!
What are your growing practices?
Our farming style is regenerative, or beyond organic. We work with Mother Nature’s tried and true systems to focus on biodiverse microclimates, thriving soils, and organically-grown and nutrient-dense crops. Absolutely no chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides are used — for our family’s health, and for yours! We utilize sustainable practices like composting, hügelkultur, crop rotation, holistic sheep grazing, cover cropping, and tarping garden beds to manage weeds without toxic herbicides. To encourage biodiversity and resist monoculture practices, we interplant many of our crops, maintain diverse pastures between gardens, and are thrilled to have more than a dozen W.W. Bee Ranch beehives set up on our acreage.
A stunning Kansas sunset is contrasted beautifully against our diverse pasture. This paddock is ready to be grazed by our small flock of sheep. We utilize small-scale rotational grazing to manage pasture areas on our farm. This enables us to build healthy, thriving soils.
We think monoculture lawns are overrated. Dandelion and wild violet blooms provide an essential early season nectar source to honeybees. In addition, we want to be able to roam freely outdoors without the risk of absorbing toxins through the soles of tender feet.
Our farm is registered with FieldWatch, which is intended to safeguard our site against residential chemical drift. Lawn care companies are supposed to check this registry for guidance when applying chemicals to home and commercial landscapes.
When it’s fall on the farm, that can only mean one thing: garlic planting. These beds were tarped for 2-3 months, which helps manage weed seeds without harming the soil biome.
