Boggy Creek Farm:
USING THEIR CRAFT TO FEED THE COMMUNITY
A Dickies Maker Story
​
​Traveling to Austin, TX for a visit to Boggy Creek Farm is completely worth the trip if you’re looking for fresh, organic produce and flowers.

Check out the video to learn more about the farm, what they grow, and advice for anyone trying to start their own farm.
