For Sam and Megan Toth, the opportunity to provide food for their fellow Putnam County residents truly is a way of life.
"As kids, Sam grew his passion for hunting across the country, and I was always diverged in anything plant related. Together, we formed a "hunter-gatherer" relationship. For 16 years, we have been homesteading and living a self sufficient lifestyle, even when we lived in town. Homesteading is not defined by where you live, but by the lifestyle choices you make," Megan Toth told The Putnam County Post.
Those lifestyle choices and their "hunter-gatherer" relationship has evolved into Hidden Hawk Homestead and a FarmStand to the public. Hidden Hawk Homestead is located at 3120 South County Road 150 West, Greencastle.
In 2021, the Toths moved from Greencastle to Limedale in rural Putnam County.
Toth said the move allowed them to do more when it comes to agriculture.
"We were able to expand more with our regenerative agriculture practices, as well as learn new skills and passions along the way. Our animals and soil work together to create this perfect, simple life," Toth said.
Since 2021, the Toths have been selling things off their farm, but this spring they decided to open a FarmStand to the public.
"We sell chicken and duck eggs, seasonal vegetables, herb and flower starts, fresh herbs, dried herbs, tea blends, flower bouquets, produce and baked goods. We also sell hatching eggs, chicks, ducklings and pedigreed rabbits, as well as manure fertilizer off of the stand by appointment," Toth said.
And, it truly is from the farm to the table, she said.
"Everything we do is completely grown, cultivated and produced from our land," Toth said.
Toth said her and her husband enjoy every aspect of the job, especially sharing their passion and goods with the community.
"We love to offer a variety of goodies so that there is something for everyone. We have also enjoyed people's reactions when they first see the stand. The stand was a true labor of love and it gives us so much joy that others are feeling that love. We have even had people stop by to take selfies in front of our stand," Toth said.
She added the community has been absolutely supportive so far.
"Lots of people look forward to our Facebook posts each weekend to see what we will have available. We pride on seasonal growing, so our stand is always changing," Toth said.
The stand is open every Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sundays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. until October.
