Curt and Justin Burbrink grow high quality popcorns for Family Farm Grown®. They are father and son and work together every day. In addition to popcorn, the Burbrink family grows field corn, soybeans, wheat, and hay. Justin also raises cattle, sheep, and hogs for sale to friends and members of the local community. The Burbrink family has farmed near the town of Jonesville in southern Bartholomew County, Indiana for at least five generations. Both families live in homes built on a farm that was first purchased by Burbrink ancestors in the 1860s. Justin’s children, Beau, Braden, Brooklyn, and Brock are involved in 4-H programs showing hogs and sheep and entering competitions for corn, soybeans, and hay. They are keeping the family traditions alive and well. Family Farm Grown® is proud to have the Burbrink family partner with us in growing high quality popcorns on the rich White River bottom soils of southern Bartholomew County.
