Hot Spell Farm

Located in Elgin TX, Hot Spell Farm is a worker operated farm that is people and Earth first. We are making a collective commitment to sustain joy and community through shared land and vegetables.

Currently, few cooperative opportunities for produce growers exist in our home state of Texas; there are limited, if not nonexistent models for the farm we want to build our community. The typical farm operation might be spearheaded by individuals, spouses, and well-endowed benefactors… We’re none of those.

Hot Spell is the brainchild of four farmworkers who previously worked together on farms not-our-own. Our intentions and dreams as an equitable, multi-owner farm were created from a shared desire to carve space for non-traditional paths to farming in Central Texas. Our vision is to increase access to nutritionally dense and southern-adapted produce for the metro Austin area and beyond. In hopes of breaking patterns of profit-driven burnout, our work-centered operation is a hopeful step in creating a participatory model for first-gen workers: you don’t have to do it alone.

We sell our produce at the farmers market, offer a 12-week CSA with local pickup options, and sell directly to wholesale buyers. Visit our website to learn more and connect.
