General Farm Description: MRF is a small, diversified farm in Dover, PA. We grow vegetables for a CSA program, farmers' markets, wholesale accounts and our farm store. Vegetables are our primary operation, but we also raise pastured chicken. Our farm is an old Christmas tree farm, so we also have a small business in December doing tree and wreath sales.
