LIGHT Farms in Lamar is all about growing healthy real food that honors God by honoring his creation through the use of organic self-sustaining methods. Andrew and Valerie Criswell own and operate LIGHT Farms, which works side by side with their retail store, SC Real Foods, to deliver TRUE “Farm to Table” food that not only tastes great, but is healthy too!
Neither Andrew nor Valerie has a background or education in agriculture, but they built a premiere farm that focuses on sustainability practices, preservation of heritage breed animals, and exercising dominion over the land for God’s purposes. At LIGHT Farms, they grow organically. They do not use any pesticides or herbicides. They farm pork, beef and eggs. All of LIGHT Farms’ animals are Heritage Breeds which are on the conservation list. This not only helps preserve these breeds, but creates more flavorful and nutritious products than their traditionally farmed counterparts. LIGHT Farms ensures their locally grown and locally prepared food is available for its immediate community. The way their food is grown and prepared makes all the difference.
