Two Wisconsin farmers are hoping to make their farm more accessible to the public.

Shawn Kuhn and Tommy Stauffer are co-owners of Vitruvian Farms in McFarland. They grow a variety of greens and mushrooms.

“We got interested in farming while we were in college together and basically just learned that there’s a lot of problems with the food system,” Kuhn said. “We decided we wanted to be a part of changing it for the better.”

Vitruvian Farms, originally focused on supplying produce to Madison area restaurants, expanded its vision in March 2020 by launching an online store and home delivery service. This service quickly became a staple in the community, offering not only Vitruvian's own produce but also a variety of products from over 50 local vendors.
