Kilgus Farmstead Country Store

Come visit us at the Kilgus Farmstead Country Store where you can purchase our products fresh from the farm! Our store is located next to Kilgus Dairy, 1 mile south of Fairbury, IL on 1st street. You will find all of our farmstead dairy products as well as our farm-raised quality meats: Jersey beef, Berkshire pork, and Boer goat meat.

We also source a diverse and growing number of locally made, high-quality products that complement our own. If you visit early on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, you can see the milk bottling process in action through the viewing window to our on-farm creamery! We also give tours in the spring, summer, and fall  — see the Our Farm Tours page to schedule your tour.
