Chigger Ridge

Chigger Ridge is located on the western edge of the Missouri Ozarks, about halfway between Reeds and Sarcoxie. No, you won’t find it listed as “Chigger Ridge” on a map . . . it’s just the name we gave our farm when we moved here years ago. Don’t let the name fool you . . . we don’t have that many chiggers, but we have lots of other critters roaming around . . . including the owner, JD (aka Boomer). The main crop on our farm is Miscanthus Giganteus. It started as part of the MFA biofuel program, and now under Renew Biomass. The miscanthus is harvested and used for various purposes, like fuel pellets for heating, particle board, and even as an additive in pet food. JD is a licensed firearms instructor. We started making our own soaps and lotions for ourselves, and now everyone wants some, so we sell it. Click the "Shop" button above, or CLICK HERE to see what's in our store.
