Vilicus Farms

Vilicus Farms is a nationally recognized first generation, organic, dryland crop farm in Northern Hill County, Montana. Owned and operated by Doug Crabtree and Anna Jones-Crabtree, Vilicus Farms grows a diverse array of organic heirloom and specialty crops. Vilicus Farm’s cropping practices focus on soil-building and carbon sequestration, pollinator friendly conservation tactics, and minimum disturbance tillage practices. With a 5-7 year crop rotation, 26% of managed land in permanent pollinator friendly conservation, and over 20 unique crops grown annually, Vilicus Farms strives to promote diversity and resilience across its landscape.

Anna & Doug set a high bar of stewardship in a challenging dryland environment. We're proud to partner with Vilicus Farms in restoring biodiversity on their farmland. The Dark rye comes to us with a deep, rich flavor that makes our Rugbrød a nutrient dense bread your friends and family will love.
