BROOKLAND, Ark. (RFD News) — At Huffman Family Farms, a passion for farming and quality beef continues driving the operation forward.
Owned and operated by Mark and Kim Huffman, the farm specializes in ethically raised, USDA-inspected meats and farm-fresh produce.
Their commitment to both tradition and innovation recently earned the operation a spot on the Arkansas Farm Trail.
In addition to raising livestock and produce, the Huffman family operates an on-site market where customers can purchase farm-raised meats, eggs, and other locally sourced products.
The Arkansas Farm Trail features more than 35 farms across the state and was created to help consumers learn more about where their food comes from while connecting them directly with local producers.
