Barham Gardens

About Barham Gardens

Kim and Roberta Barham manage a small homestead farm In Southwest Wisconsin's Driftless Region.  They specialize in growing Aronia berries (chokeberry).  As passionate believers in this Native Superfruit, its ecological, neutraceutical and potential economic impact, they have participated in a Buy Local Buy Wisconsin DATCP grant to increase Aronia awareness.  We feel honored to have had this opportunity to travel throughout the state educating people about Aronia.

Besides growing the fruit and marketing to various Madison area grocery stores and farmers markets, they have collaborated with Yahara Bay Distillers to develop, bottle and distribute an enjoyable and versatile Aronia Berry Cherry liqueur.  Though the liqueur is no longer available, cocktail and food recipe ideas are highlighted on other pages.

Barham Gardens hosts an a U-pick on their farm most years in season, usually late August through early September.  We will announce the dates on the website Events page and our Facebook page, so stay tuned.

The Barhams wish to enhance Aronia awareness and support Wisconsin and other Aronia growers, harvesters, processors, etc.  (Find links to these businesses on our Industry Partners page.)
