Backer Farm
Backer Farm has been a working farm owned by the Backer Family for almost 100 years. Heather and Derick Backer are fourth generation farmers/ranchers currently living on and working the family farm along with their two young children. Heather and Derick pride themselves on utilizing natural growing and animal raising practices. All of their animals are raised on pasture, in small batches on regenerative farmland. They avoid the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, gmo ladened feed, antibiotics, and growth hormones. They even make their own hay! These practices have earned them the title of Certified River Friendly Farm. Heather and Derick are excited to have the opportunity to share their pasture raised meats, bone broths, tallows, and eggs with you at the market!

Beach Block Prints
Lauren Rothstein, the artist behind Beach Block Prints, grew up spending her summers on LBI and now lives on the island year round. When she isn’t in the classroom teaching, you can find Lauren surfing, gardening, creating, and enjoying all of what the outdoors has to offer. For her art, Lauren uses rubber blocks to create one of a kind designs. She transfer, carves, and then stamps the design onto paper and fabric. The beauty of block printing is that no design is the same, so every piece is an original work of art. Most of her designs center around the ocean, with common themes of surfing, underwater animals, and the beach.
