EV Farms – Our farm has been in business since the 1940’s. It was started by my Grandpa. He began in dairy, then changed to seed potatoes. My father raised seed potatoes all his life along with alfalfa, wheat, barley, and about 60 head of beef cows. We are a fairly small operation and we like it that way. When the seed potato business started to let us down, and my dad passed away, we decided to get out of the potatoes and find something else to raise. A little over four years ago, I met David Sands and he told about the emerging gluten-free world and took me to tour Montana Gluten Free. In 2016, we joined Montana Gluten Free as farmers and are looking forward to continuing to work together in the future.

Vilicus Farms officially started from scratch in 2009 when Doug and Anna purchased 1,280 acres of Northern Great Plains prairie off the open market with 20 years of savings and lots of hutzpah. In 2005, Doug and Anna recognized the emerging opportunities in the organic market and began drafting their vision of a model organic farm that would push the boundaries of conservation and sustainability.
