Vendor Spotlight

Donna's Farm Donna's Farm, located in Fannett, TX (15 miles S. of Beaumont), is run by the Heironimus family, Donna, Steve and Brent. Started in 2010, the farm began as a home garden. While Donna was recovering from an illness, her husband Steve started the garden to ensure that they had access to sustainably grown food. Over time, the garden expanded to a full blown growing operation focused on herbs, flowers, and vegetables. With the growth of the farm, Donna and Steve's son Brent came home to help run it. With two Bachelor of Science degrees, one in business, and one in marketing, and an Associates of Science degree in culinary arts, he has the skills necessary to manage and grow the operation. This season Donna's farm is providing tomatoes, peppers, herbs, and other items to the Co-Op. Help us to support their farm by shopping regularly at the Central City Co-Op.
