 Chris and Tania Cubberly are the proud managers of Tempel Farms Organics where they produce vegetables and pasture raised chickens and eggs. They moved onto this land in February 2009 and have 8 tillable acres for vegetables and 400 layer hens.
Helping Chris and Tania with the work on the farm is Edward. Chris and Tania are training Edward to collect eggs “but he keeps throwing them.” The Cubberly’s are expecting another child this summer; they hope he will grow up to be a better egg collector than his older brother. Chris and Tania employ organic agriculture practices and will apply for organic certification in 2011. You can find their products at the Logan Square Farmers Market, Grayslake Farmers Market, and through Irv and Shelly’s Fresh Picks.
