Morningstar Berries
Small-Scale Innovation in Sustainable Fruit Development

Morningstar Berries is a trans-led specialty fruit project rooted in Northwest Arkansas. Currently in the early growth phase, our mission is to cultivate unique, high-quality berry strains with an emphasis on sustainability, flavor innovation, and agricultural inclusion.
What Sets Us Apart

Every breakthrough starts with a bold idea
Innovation Takes Root
We're not just growing berries- we're cultivating entirely new strains. Rooted in backyard soil, Morningstar Berries is experimenting with high-flavor genetics like "Cotton Candy" and specialty hybrids that big agriculture won't touch. What starts in a 20x20 patch could disrupt the entire berry market.

Mass production forgot how fruit should taste. we didn't.
Flavor Becomes Identity
Each varitety is bred for richness, sweetness, and memorablitly. This isn't commodity fruit-its flavor first farming, designed for small-batch food labs, high-end partners, and communities who crave something different.

Inclusion isn't a footnote - it's the foundation.
Farming for the Forgotten
Led by a trans woman farmer in rural Arkansas, Morningstar Berries is a rebellion against exclusion in agricultural. USDA recognizes this. NRCS supports it. And buyers respect it. We're showing what a queer, woman-owned micro farm can become with the right soil and strategy.

We're not just building a patch - we're designing a blueprint
Micro Farm, Macro Vision
The long game is white - labeling. Private contracting. Cross-partnerships with chefs, chocolatiers, and food science labs. Morningstar Berries is a pilot site for sustainability, soil innovation, and supply - chain disruption on a micro scale.
