A Little History

Hi, I am Lisa Zuhlke owner of Second Breakfast Enterprises, LLC - Little Shire Farm.  My husband John and I began our love for raising our own food as children with our hands in black Nebraska soil. Lisa had always worked in plant nursery and horticulture.  In 2000, John traveled to Norway to study Agroecology and worked on Fukhol Gard (Farm) in Stange, NO.  After arriving back in the states, the urge to grow things had to be quelled and thus we began our own own small farm market and CSA enterprise in Lincoln, NE and renewed our love for growing. 


Over the past two decades we have worked with numerous gifted farmers in several states, helping develop community gardens, farmers markets, and even a new farmer training site.  After several years of remodeling an acreage in rural Brookings County, in 2016 we decided that it was time to start our journey back into what we love the most...sustainable agriculture.  We are now growing on 5 acres, with 1,900 square foot in our greenhouses.   


In 2017, we started our infused honey enterprise with Applewood Smoked Honey with great reviews, evolving into multiple flavors in over a dozen stores.  


In 2025, we will have an additional hoophouse, and well on our way to having our very own commercial kitchen.  Lisa will also be venturing further in beeswax products, and John has started working with his collection of bean seed and developing more great flavors of infused honeys.  Carl and John have started working with distilling, and working on a meadery to be located in our new commercial kitchen set to open in 2026.  Our goal is by 2024, we will have a commercial kitchen, on-farm market, and a bit of agri-tourism.  


Our goal: be the most diverse small scale agriculture system in the region...and a consistent reservoir of genetic diversity.  In the face of monoculture that surrounds us, we hope that we are a shining light of what agriculture should be.  Our Markets include Farmers' Markets  in Downtown Brookings, Sioux Falls Falls Park, and the Lake Lorraine Farmers Market, as well as wholesale to several restaurants and stores.

Our Advocacy

The Shire, like many small and specialty farms face an uncertain future in 

South Dakota and Nationally.


The Shire and support a better way, opposed to the over-industrialization of 

agriculture that surrounds us.

 

The Shire supports efforts to foster producer and consumer education, as well development of public policy that tackles the issues facing small scale specialty producers and processors that employ non-industrial agricultural practices and/or crops.


Please support ours, and our partners' efforts to protect small-scale & specialty agriculture in South Dakota and beyond.
