Set in the rolling hills of South-central Indiana, Strangers Hill Organics is a small farm business specializing in Certified Organic produce. Operated as Strangers Hill by founders Dale and Lee Jones for over 30 years, our farm and greenhouse operation has been Certified Organic since 1989, the oldest continually Certified Organic farm in Indiana. In December of 2007, operations were expanded with the purchase of the historic 80-acre Howard Farm, next door to the original Strangers Hill farm. Joining founders Dale and Lee Jones in the new venture are Rick Dietz, George Huntington, Heather Reynolds and Dave Rollo. Each brings a wide range of experience and expertise. With the addition of new land—continuously farmed since 1816 and just 6.5 miles from downtown Bloomington—we have increased our production significantly and widened our distribution under the Strangers Hill Organics brand. Strangers Hill Organics produce and bedding plants are available from early spring until late fall at your nearby Bloomingfoods Co-op locations, Wholefoods in Indianapolis and at the Bloomington Farmers Market on Saturday and the Tuesday market as well. Taste the best the earth can offer… as local as it gets!

I think my paintings could be called “haunted realism.” I intend the spirits of the land and the plants to be felt in the experience of the paintings. This speaks from an older, more “primitive” view of the world, where everything is known to be alive and possessing spirit and consciousness. I think as young children, we all experience the world in this way.I want my paintings to be an antidote to a culture where nothing is sacred. I hope my paintings help the viewer connect to the beautiful, abundant life spirit around and within us.
