OUR STORY
Our Roots Grow Deep
Empty Pockets Ranch is a small sheep dairy, with a knack for horses and a passion for flowers and fresh vegetables. We began our business and way of life in agriculture in the year 2013, when Lori and Josh first fell in love with the land upstate. Since then, we’ve been through many changes and have become a destination for our Sunflower Festival! Check out our events calendar to make sure you don’t miss out on anything, and for more information get in touch with us. We look forward to your visit!
