Our mission: To engage in training, food production, and immersive experiences that incorporate organic, sustainable, and regenerative agriculture, supporting local food security. 

​Wellspring Inc. is a nonprofit education center and organic farm. For over 37 years, we have served the Great Lakes area from our farm site in West Bend, Wisconsin.

• High quality, fun youth programming available through our field trips!

  their eggs for breakfast! How cool!"

Special thanks to our perennial partners, Dr. Bronners Family Foundation! 

For over 14 years, the Dr. Bronner's Foundation has generously supported our work in all things local food - because of this, we have been able to do so much work over the years that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Hundreds of Farmers-in-Training, thousands of youth and adults engaged in hands-on learning later, we can say with certainty that Wellspring is and has been making a serious impact on the local food system in Wisconsin.
