About Us:

Wishful Acres Farm & Brewery is a small family farm and artisan craft brewery located in the beautiful rolling hills of Northwest Illinois, near the cities of Freeport and Lena.  Our farm was established in 2009 and we grow over a hundred different varieties of vegetables, hops, micro-greens, herbs, fruits, and garden plants, all of which are organic.  Our artisan craft micro-brewery features beer brewed right here on site inside our barn!  Many of our organic crops are used to create our beers!. We feature an on-site tap room and bar where you can enjoy a glass or two of our fresh draft beer, take some home, and browse our merchandise, bottled beer, farm products, and more!

​Our craft beer is available for sale at our taproom & bar, and our farm's produce is available through our farm's CSA program (Community Supported Agriculture).
