Our story

Hoof & Clover Farm was founded in 2021 by Josh and Jen Fortman. We were drawn to farming primarily by the desire to stem the tide of environmental degradation that occurs as small family farms are aggregated into large tracts of monoculture crops. Wanting to play a part in reversing this trend is what gets us out of bed in the morning.

Josh is a fourth generation farmer and recovering engineer. Jen is a practicing entomologist and relishes every sighting of new bee, fly, and beetle species found on the farm.
