We are committed to ecologically friendly farming practices. Our crops are chosen based on what naturally grows well in our region. We never use chemicals to grow any of our crops. Needless-to-say, all of our produce is beyond organic. By working with nature and growing crops that natrually want to grow, our costs are reduced. We pass these savings on to our many loyal customers, who enjoy low cost, poison-free produce.

Our selection of commodities is ever-changing.

For over 100 years, our family has passed down a delicious strain of garlic from generation to generation. At Roundabout Acres, we are continuing this family tradition and, for the first time, making our garlic available to the public. It is an easy to peel, hardneck garlic. A lot of care goes into the growing process; we plant and harvest by hand. Only rainwater and sunshine are used to grow our garlic. After tasting it, you will see why so much effort was spent preserving it.

Slamka Garlic is patent pending.

 

Maple syrup flavor is influenced by region. Most syrup is produced in Canada and Vermont and has a common taste. Southeast Wisconsin has relatively few maple syrup producers, with Roundabout Acres being the largest privately owned maple farm in Mount Pleasant, WI. Our maple syrup has a very sweet flavor that some have compared to honey and unlike anything you will find at the grocery store.

It takes 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup. We tap our maples with stainless steel spouts. Sap is collected from each tree by hand. Many syrup producers boil sap using firewood, giving the syrup a slightly smokey or 'robust' flavor. At Roundabout Acres, we use a smokeless method to produce syrup. The end result is simply sweet.
