Knee Deep Farm

Knee Deep Farm in Jeffersonville, VT is a diversified farm growing Certified Organic vegetables, herbs, garlic & flowers. Shane and Eliza Steffens have been farming together since 2007 when they seeded their first garlic crop at the Intervale in Burlington, VT and moved to their current farm in 2011. They are proud to be a family farm and part of Vermont's thriving agriculture community.

Shane and Eliza used their VFF Business Builder Loan to purchase a used Massey- Ferguson tillage tractor. This will allow them to increase efficiency by having tractors at both of their growing locations (6 miles apart) and easily moving pallets and bins of winter storage crops in their dry storage room. With additional storage for their fall crops they will be able to extend the season for wholesale vegetables and expand their fall CSA program.
