I am proud to be a fourth-generation caretaker of this farm and surrounding acreage. My great-grandfather purchased this land in 1921 and since then, my family has been farming the best way that we knew how. For the last 30 years, that has meant a divergence from traditional farming practices to focus on regenerative farming-- farming that focuses on enriching the health of the soil and the animals instead of depleting it. On our farm, we raise beef, lamb, pigs and chickens and they all live out on pasture. In our farm store we sell meat, eggs, and raw, all-grass dairy products like milk, butter, cheese, kefir, and yogurt. Our customers drive from all parts of central Kansas to shop at Jako Farm because our food is different than food in the grocery store. We call it JakoPure food. Not only do we share our life-giving, gut-restoring food with others, but we want to share the experience of our farm, too. That's why we've started hosting guests on hipcamp so that you can truly experience what's special about our farm. Each location provides a unique perspective on our farm, and you'll engage a different part of our story at each place. But wherever you stake your temporary claim at Jako Farm, we hope you experience the peace and rest that we know and love. Learn more about this land: Jako Farm is a working regenerative farm, and this campsite provides an easy view of all that goes on here. The cows and sheep will graze near by while the chickens scratch in the distance. You'll see the farmers moving the animals to new pasture and the llama playing games with the sheep. If you're up at sunrise, you'll see Ken bringing the cows up to the barn for milking (April through November). Its pretty quiet here, except for the subtle noises of wildlife. (Fair warning: if you're in a tent, you will probably hear the milking machine kick on at 6:30am.) We're also proud to be a smell-free farm because all animals live out on pasture. There are killer sunrises and sunsets here. If you're lucky, you'll also see our resident bald eagle pair soaring through the sky. A bathroom with shower is available for your use in the barn nearby. Please be respectful of farm operations, although we're always open to answering questions if you see us around.

Campers speak highly of the welcoming atmosphere and peaceful surroundings at this site. Many appreciate the added touch of a self-serve farm store offering fresh, local products. The opportunity to observe farm activities, like milking cows, adds a unique charm to the stay. However, the morning noise from the milking machine is noted, though it doesn't seem to detract from the overall positive experience.

This was a wonderful, welcoming place to stay. It is peaceful and quiet (except for the milking machine in the morning, but I enjoyed watching that process! ). The self-serve farm store was a bonus and we've been enjoying Jako Farm meat, cheese, and yogurt. We will definitely keep this stay on our route next time we wander this way. Meanwhile, we will proudly wear our Jako Farm T- shirts!

Tent

Easy to find, down a well maintained gravel road. Clean quiet place to stay and friendly host. The long pasture view from the site was perfect. A picnic table was a plus. The shower was a bonus! They sell all sorts of farm foods. The pride in ownership is evident. Highly recommend

Daniel and his family made us feel very welcome, helping us to enjoy their location to the fullest extent. What a beautiful family as well as a successful farming operation. We enjoyed hiking the property, getting to see all their animals. We shopped their store, enjoying the fruits of their hard work. We loved our campsite with its privacy and view. We will be stopping again later in the month on the trip home. Looking forward to more of their “real food” and hospitality!

Everything we needed and more

23 ft Class C · With kids

We just needed a spot for a quick overnight camp and a shower and we got so much more! They have a little store filled with food from their farm and we were able to purchase our fill of meat, yogurt, cheeses and milk. We got in late and one of the owners still came by to show us where the bathroom was and to make sure we were settled in. The next morning we got to see the workings of a farm firsthand and got to meet and chat with the owners. We absolutely loved our stay here!

Very peaceful place to stay, chatted with Daniels father a bit and he was very friendly. Spot had electrical/water as well as a fire ring. Would camp there again if in the area.
