Epiphany Farms Enterprise Inc. (EFE) was incorporated in June 2009 by a group of young, talented and passionate service professionals to establish new sustainable food service systems for the future.
We became a B Corp because the B Corp community recognizes that the future will require business to make decisions with both stakeholder and shareholder goals in mind.
Over the past two years, EFE has implemented beyond organic, sustainable farming systems that serve as the backbone of the production model. Now, EFE is designing a farm-fresh restaurant that will be open to the public in downtown Bloomington, Illinois, spring of 2011. The restaurant's menu will be totally supplied by the farms' harvest and designed to showcase the connection between healthy soil and a healthy life style.
The Change We SeekTM
Epiphany Farms Enterprise Inc. practices a "Farm to Fork" concept that is beyond organic and uses environmentally friendly techniques. EFE is offering an exceptional product through a socially conscious farming system that gives customers something not only to enjoy but also believe in. Our mission is to bring a better understanding of food, health, and well-being to the community while inspiring the next generation to care for the Earth in a sustainable way.
