Windy Knoll Produce
History of Our Farm
A 10 year-old fifth grader, Derek is very interested in farming.
He has helped his parents plant and tend their own vegetable garden since he could walk. Derek joined the Stewards program in 2008.
His desires currently are to raise Indian corn as well as tomatoes and peppers. In 2007, he experimented with Indian corn and enjoys it. Indian corn can be used as a fall decoration or may be eaten like sweet corn.
Derek is looking forward to owning his own specialty crop
farm someday.
Our Products
Derek has picked mulberries and grown peas, green beans, lettuce, spinach, parsley, red and yellow peppers, pumpkins, tomatoes, etc. without using herbicides and only organic methods of insect control. But he really enjoys hi Indian corn which has been a unique ingredient enjoyed by Chicago chefs.
