It is K.M.K. Farms' goal to provide our community with year-round local, organic fruits and vegetables and to operate our farm in a way that is sustainable for:
- The Customer
- The Farmer
- The Employee
We have farmed here for 13 seasons. We have always farmed sustainably without any non-organic pesticide, herbicide, fungicides, or fertilizers. We sell our fruit and vegetables through Farmers Markets, direct to restaurants, CSA's, and our farm Stand. We grow just about everything from Arugula to Zucchini. We are known for our unique varieties and year round produce. We strive to be the earliest and the latest with most vegetables. Our table changes with the seasons and we don't miss markets
Thank you for being so faithful week after week, we look forward to seeing your smiling face. We appreciate your comments, suggestions & that you bring your own reusable bag.
What you say about us
"Way back at the end of January, James and I visited our hometown in Central California. While at the farmer's market there, I met Kyle Reynolds, farmer and owner of KMK Organics farm. He offered us a tour of his place and how could we turn it down? The day we visited Kyle was busy, but his super friendly co farmer and wife, Michele, showed us all around. Growing up in the Central Valley, one becomes accustomed to farms and farm culture but mostly on a huge single operation scale. I had friends whose parents were orchard owners or dairymen or tended orange groves. What Kyle and Michele are doing is awesome-just a little bit of so many things-done well! The Reynolds grow a small crop of daikon, carrots, more types of greens than I could count, avocados, citrus, gourds, hens for eggs, herbs, a small variety of fruit and probably much more I am missing. They use organic, drought friendly methods and take a lot of pride in the work they are doing. They are also part of a local CSA-which is so great to hear! I will be posting these photos here on flickr with better descriptions. Thanks for showing us around, Michele! Happy Sunday! "~Abbey~

Recovering from the death of a farmer
I had to let you know just how much your article touched my heart! I lost my father a few years ago also. Out of his 5 children, I was the only one who followed his path by farming. I guess farming is in my blood, because there is really no other place I would rather be than here on our farm. ... My father is buried under a olive tree, 3 hours north of me. I was sad that I could not go to his graveside when I needed to talk to him, so I cut a branch of that olive tree and brought it back to the farm to propagate it and it is now 3 feet tall. Today I was outside and notice it has 2 small olives on its branches...it brought tears to my eyes.~Michele Reynolds~
You are apart of our farm, our family, we honor you and appreciate all the hard work you do to make our farm special all year.
I've been blessed to find people who are smarter than I am, and they help me to execute the vision I have. ~Russell Simmons~

Our Worm Farm
This year one of our customers helped us get started on a Green Initiative Project in the form of a "Worm Bin" AKA Vermicompost. With our leftovers, cardboard & other compostables we have created an environment that produces nutrient dense organic matter. In a few months as we til the ground we plan on adding the Worm Casting AKA Black Gold as an organic additive to the Herb plot as a test to see the outcome of this most exciting project. Thank you Nonnie's Urban Worm Farm located in Fresno.
