Jacques Neukom
Neukom Family Farm
Jacques Neukom co-operates Neukom Family Farm, a certified organic farm of 17 acres located in Humboldt County, California, with his wife Amy and children Hazel and Elsa. Neukom Family Farm is 28 years old and includes a 10-acre, dry-farmed orchard of peaches, pluots, pears, apples, figs, and pomegranates. Another seven acres are dedicated to a wide variety of annual and perennial fruits and vegetables including one acre of wine grapes. They practice sustainable agriculture, dry farming, seed saving, and food preservation. Their food distribution is kept local – 100% of the produce is sold within 45 miles of the farm. Jacques’ and Amy’s primary goal in farming is to lovingly feed and grow their community.
