Skyview Farm and Creamery - Local and Fresh

A great resource for locally grown farm products is Skyview Farm and Creamery.

They produce dairy, beef and other fresh farm products.

You can find them at selected farmer's markets, visit their farm (see directions below) or meet at Overland Park drop off.

Here is the link to their website:  http://www.skyviewfarm.net/


Hours at the farm are Monday- Friday 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Saturday 10 -4, and we try to avoid Sundays.
 
Directions: Take 69 Hwy.  south about 50 miles to Pleasanton.  Take the exit that is marked E.  850 Rd.  (Which is the same exit as the Mound City/52 Hwy.)  Turn left (east) and follow the black top as it makes a sweeping turn south and over a bridge.  Then turn left on 800 Rd., cross the RR tracks, and go about 3/4 mile.  We are on the left with a sign out front that says Skyview Farm.
