Hi there! We're Hannah and Justin, the farmers at Rue de Bungaloo Farm. We are in love with good food, and good food is only possible when we take care of our Mother and each other! We're committed to providing your family the most nutrient dense, unique, and delicious food possible!
The Story Behind the Name
You may know that Rue is the French word for street. Our farm name honors the street, or road, named Bungaloo. Hannah's family farm has existed here on Bungaloo Road for 5 generations. Her great-great grandfather is even credited with bestowing the name "Bungaloo" to the road. What does Bungaloo mean? We don't exactly know, but for us this name pays homage to our farming heritage and community. The word sounds a lot like "bungalow" which could be thought of as another word for "home." We certainly like thinking of our farm this way. We tied in the "Rue de" to the name because of one of our favorite people, chef Julia Child. While reading her book, My Life In France, we liked the way she affectionately referred to her favorite Paris home on Rue de l'Universite as "Roo de Loo" and we couldn't help but adapt it for our own farm name. That's how Rue de Bungaloo Farm was born!

At Rue De Bungaloo Farm, our mission is to be good stewards of the land through the use of sustainable farming practices. A healthy farm means that the food we grow is bound to be high in nutrition and full of flavor. We raise culinary mushrooms, perennial tree fruit and berries, gourmet garlic for seed and culinary use, and pastured organically- fed hogs who get plenty of apple treats.

That's why we take a tough stance against pesticides and rely on organic-approved, natural fertilizers and holistic orchard sprays. We focus on diversity, from the beneficial insect habitat in our apple orchard to the dozens of different varieties of apples and garlic we grow. Diversity is key to ecosystem health!

Supporting Local Communities
We are proud to be a part of the local community and support local hunger relief initiatives. This year we are excited to be a part of the WI-LFPA (Local Food Purchase Assistance) Program which distributes our farm-fresh produce directly to Wisconsin food banks. We offer seed garlic each fall to keep food production local and in the hands of the people!
