About Us
Cedar Ring Greens is a small, certified organic farm located 5 miles north of downtown Frankfort. We grow year-round and offer organic greens, herbs, peppers, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, and more through the growing season. This is our 18th season selling produce at the Franklin County Farmers Market in downtown Frankfort, and we are excited to be part of building our community’s local food economy. Our commitment to food sustainably includes improving the health of our land, encouraging biodiversity, working for food justice, and powering our home and farm with the sun.

The "we" of Cedar Ring Greens includes an Australian shepherd, a cat, cedar and locust trees, wild plums, earthworms, red clover, chickweed, bumble bees, an amazing diversity of soil microbes, the great blue herons that fly over each evening, and the people who live and work here. Mehera Baugher is farming full-time on the farm in 2022 with support from Connie Lemley and Andy McDonald who live and farm here and care for the land. Mehera comes to Cedar Ring Greens from Chicago, IL, where she worked for several years on urban farms throughout the city.

Connie is the market's Fresh Food Access VISTA member and part-time Farm to School coordinator for Frankfort Independent Schools. Andy works full-time as a sustainable energy advocate.
