Learn About Our FarmingFarming Services
Your ground. Our equipment.
Farming takes more than owning a field. It takes equipment, time, planning, and someone who knows what needs to happen throughout the season.
Legge Farms and Drainage provides farming services for landowners and farmers who need dependable help managing their acres. We handle the field work so you can keep ownership of your ground and your crop.
01
We Do the Work
From preparing the field to bringing the crop out at harvest, we use our own equipment and put the work in through the full farming season.
Who This Is For
Not every landowner farms their own ground.
If you have inherited acres, moved away, or you are starting to step back, we will run the field for you.
You do not have to give up your ground just because you cannot be there to handle the farming. We can take care of the field work and keep the season moving.
What We Handle
We take the season from field prep through harvest.
We use our own equipment to handle the work across your acres, keeping the farming process moving from one stage to the next.
01 / FIELD WORK
Tillage
We prepare the field and work the ground so it is ready for the next part of the season.
02 / PLANTING
Planting
We handle planting with our own equipment and keep the field work moving on schedule.
03 / CROP SEASON
Field Work
We stay involved with the ground through the farming season and complete the work the field requires.
04 / HARVEST
Harvest
When the crop is ready, we handle the harvest work and bring the season to completion.
You own the crop. We do the work.
Our Own Ground
We farm our own ground too.
Farming is not something we only do for other landowners.
We farm here in Hancock County, and custom acres get treated the same way ours do.
The field still needs the same work, the same attention, and the same commitment regardless of who owns the ground.
Nothing gets skipped because it is not ours.
Our Farming Approach
Keep the ground moving through the season.
Landowners and farmers need someone who will take responsibility for the field work and follow through.
Our Equipment
We bring our own equipment to the field and handle the work needed throughout the farming season.
Our Experience
We farm our own ground in Hancock County, giving us direct experience with the work involved in managing acres.
Our Responsibility
Your crop matters. We treat custom acres with the same level of attention we expect on our own ground.
