Farm History: My father
Howard was born and raised in this
area. He helped his father farm until he was called for duty in
World War II. After serving in the Navy, he returned to
Washington D.C. and worked as a welder. It was at that time
Howard and Josephine were married. My mother was born and raised
near Sykesville,
Maryland. My parents had four children Robert, Mary, Beth, and
March. (I was named after my Grandfather March Stevens.) Howard
always loved farming. In 1950 the two of them purchased 480 acres
of land in Renville County. They both worked very hard with the
farmland in addition to milking between thirty and forty dairy
cows. My older brother married and he and his wife raised a
family of four. Robert and Howard farmed together for some
time. Currently two of their sons farm in the area. My sister
Beth lives in Minot, N.D. Beth and her husband Keith have two
sons. She owns and operates an art
supply store. |

My wife, Marla, and I
have four children Clarke, Mitchell, Tyler, and Kimberly. Kim
currently attends College. Marla
teaches English at our school. Along with Marla's teaching duties
she is a full time mother. We have
been married for 30
years. Our sons and daughter-in-law are also
actively involved in the farming operation. |

Our regions yearly total
precipitation is only 16 inches per year. That is one of the reasons
we have switched to minimum tillage and direct seeding on our farm.
Soil conservation is also a concern and basic economics has guided us
in this direction. We have have been continuous cropping for
30 years.
The Stevens Farm website (www.stevensfarm.com) was created in 1999 by
March and Kimberly Stevens and presented us the opportunity to market
our products direct to our valued customers.
We make every attempt to represent our products fairly and treat our
patrons the way we like to be treated. Your privacy is a very
important issue to us. We make every attempt to make your
shopping experience secure and pleasant. Thanks to all of our
customers!

I view the

to the next generation as the role model for civilization -
