Owned by Jack and Kathy Hunt and their youngest son and his wife Nathan and Sommer Hunt, the farm has been owned and worked by the family for seven generations. Three generations of the Hunt family currently operate and run the farm, growing corn, soybeans, and wheat as well as raising and selling hogs. The youngest generation, Nathan and Sommer’s daughters Lilly, Savannah, and Caroline operate a farm fresh egg business called Hunt Sister’s Egg Farm. Many of our products are sold in and consumed by the local community and throughout Indiana, offering consumers legitimate local farm-to-table options. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1615488521902-V69WWEGHQUCEX29GBCEP/jackharvest.jpg Home - Our Crops We grow corn, soybeans, and wheat on approximately 730 acres of land in Miami and Grant Counties, which sits in north central Indiana. We sell our corn and wheat to Kokomo Grain in Amboy and CIE in Marion, with a large portion of our soybean harvest being grown specifically for seed and sold to Legg Seeds in Windfall, IN. The remainder of our commercial soybean yield is also sold to Kokomo Grain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1615489601054-DF61GFCNMWLBNOW64CV7/sunflowerhog.jpg Home - Our Hogs We raise heritage breed (half Duroc, quarter Landrace, quarter York) hogs chosen for their muscular body type and the quality of their meat. Our hogs are pasture-raised and fed a mixture corn grown in our fields, Indiana-sourced soybean meal, and non-GMO sunflower meal. We use those ingredients as well as an age/size specific nutritional supplement to create an extremely unique feed ration that we grind and blend on our farm year round. We store some corn from our fields in storage bins on the farm and create the feed on an as-needed basis weekly. The sunflower meal is sourced from nearby Healthy Hoosier Oil as a byproduct of their cold pressed sunflower oil operation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1615563429217-2735AT42AMU46TAAOC5T/amboysunset.jpg Home - Our Community Located in southeast Miami County in north central Indiana, our farm sits just on the edge of the town of Amboy. We are actively involved with our local community, from contributing to local food banks to the service that Jack and Nathan provide as volunteer firefighters with Amboy Volunteer Fire Company and Nathan’s career as Captain of Training/EMT for the City of Peru Fire Department. We have a strong rooted Christian faith and are generational members of Amboy Friends Church. We’re proud to be part of such a close community and to be able to help feed it directly through our participation in farm-to-table practices and initiatives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1615563613376-YVIPANCH9ID310PN6VSN/Indiana-Grown-updated-logo.png Home - Farm-to-Table We are proud members of the Indiana State Department of Agriculture’s Indiana Grown program, a statewide-initiative that encourages and supports the local sales and consumption of Indiana-sourced goods and products. As members of the Indiana Grown program we are networked with partners and businesses throughout Indiana that helps local goods be sold in Indiana stores and restaurants. This is especially important for smaller family farm operations and small business owners in how it supports local economies as well as the general Indiana economy. It also means that as part of the farm-to-table culture, consumers can purchase locally sourced goods and can often directly contact or visit where those products originated.

In the 21st century we’re looking to continue and build on our family’s strong tradition and heritage by continuing to educate and encourage younger generations in family farming operations. Development and implementation of sustainable practices is important to us in maintaining that legacy for future farming generations and continuing to be part of the circle of life for our local communities and our state. We are actively working to expand our hog herd and operations as well as our crop acreage. As we look ahead to the future of Hunt Family Farm, one of our core goals is to continue to be part of the long and proud tradition and heritage of family farming that helped build our nation, and we’re hopeful that generations to come will build on what we’re doing now. Family farming is part of our country’s bedrock, and we’re proud to be part of continuing that in the 21st century and beyond. https://www.amboyhuntfarm.com/hunt-sisters-egg-farm daily 0.75 2024-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1616508273878-G0CR3T5DGZK4E8RULUS1/hse01.jpg Hunt Sisters Egg Farm - Hello! We are Savannah, Lilly, and Caroline Hunt and we own and operate Hunt Sisters Egg Farm in Amboy, IN. We are the seventh generation to take up farming on the Hunt Family Farm. We started selling eggs in the fall of 2020 at the ages of 10 & 6. We do all of the daily chores and work to raise and take care of our flock, though our dad, Nathan Hunt helps with some of the heavy lifting. When we started Hunt Sisters Egg Farm, we were the youngest members of the Indiana State Department of Agriculture’s Indiana Grown program. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1616508870669-X18YF5TYRRU8C17D0GHA/hse02.jpg Hunt Sisters Egg Farm - Our Flock We currently have about 190 chickens in our flock, which is made up of Rhode Island Reds and ISA Browns. We raise our birds from the time they’re 3 days old in an old barn on our family property, and give them free access to the outside. Their feed is sourced 100% from Indiana: the corn is grown in our family farm fields, the calcium supplement in it comes from IMI in Swayzee, and the sunflower meal comes from Healthy Hoosier Oil in Converse. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6018b85a39b6d67b861d3010/1616509503461-FCEPUGLFDB6F07YRD9YA/hse03.jpg Hunt Sisters Egg Farm - Farm Fresh Eggs, From Our Farm to Your Table Our eggs can currently be purchased on the farm, through our parents or grandparents. Encounter Cafe in Converse uses our eggs in several of their recipes as well. This means that our eggs go straight from our farm to your table, and support not only us, but our local small-town community and its economy.
