God's Gang

Located 70 miles from Chicago, we have five rural acres of land to produce a variety of crops, a pond, a programming and meeting site. The site provides year round housing for our chickens, geese and ducks. Two barns allow us to dry garlic before market sale

Located a short distance from Springfield, IL, we have sheep, goats and poultry. Future plans are to learn to spin goat hair and sheep

wool to enable us to process our own yarns. Ms. Pritchett is trained in Botany, Agronomy, and Soils.

Animals and poultry from these locations are ‘passed along’ to other farm groups at no charge to enable them to start their herds.

Located in Chicago’s South Shore Community and accessible by public transportation. Two Greenhouses provide year round growth opportunity.
