scheeringa farms & Produce: highland, In

Jenny Scheeringa’s grandfather, Farmer Bill, came over
from the Netherlands and started the farm in 1940. The
farm was passed down to her father, Farmer Don, and
now she and her two sisters run the farm. “We’re so
proud of what we have and what we’ve become. We
started off with a small farm stand and we’ve been able
to double in size a couple times over,” says Jenny. Each
sister has taken a role and they work together to support
the business. “I do all the wholesale, my sister Jeannine
does all the books, and my sister Janille runs the stand,”
Jenny says. “We work well together!”

Why Local?

“This is our home. We’re the only farm in town, this is
the last farm left,” Jenny explains, “People in our
community and partners like Midwest buy from us
because they know we have good quality and we take
pride in what we do. I’m glad for people all over the
area to be able to appreciate our products.”
