Who We Are

    John Hellerman started working on Goodwin Creek farm in April of 2005.  There was a lot of work to do cleaning up old fence lines and grooming the property. 

In 2007 we started planting dozens of trees and cultivating many different vegetables.  Pears, apples, blueberries, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers and other goodies have started production.  Farm fresh eggs have been in abundance for the last few months as our free range chickens have been happy to produce one egg each, every day.

After a herd of deer became fond of our crops in the summer of 2007 we started baking muffins for the Nellysford Farmers Market to make up for the loss.  In 2008 we installed commercial ovens and mixers in our VDA certified kitchen and we're producing up to 300 fantastic loaves of bread a day.

At Goodwin Creek Farm we use only better than organic methods to raise our animals and plants.  No excuses here, if we have trouble with pests beyond what our gentle methods will handle we recycle and compost the crop and try something different.  Think of the leaf chews and spots on some of our produce as assurance that this is some the best the earth has to offer.

Goodwin Creek Farm & Bakery is owned and operated by John & Nancy Hellerman.
