Our Ozark Village
We Love Company!
Baker Creek’s farm and pioneer village is just a short drive from Mansfield, Mo., situated on an old homestead at the confluence of Baker Creek and the Gasconade River. While the seed store is a popular destination for visitors, there is much more to see at the farm and village. We are open year- round Monday through Friday. Hours vary by season; in warmer months, the seed store and grounds are open 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. In the late fall, winter, and early spring, hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Features of the village and farm include:
Restaurant
The restaurant at Baker Creek offers a small but mighty plant-based menu featuring a rotation of “locally sourced and globally inspired” dishes. As much as possible, the ingredients are harvested fresh from the greenhouses and gardens at Baker Creek or purchased from local growers or producers.
Our restaurant is temporarily closed effective 4-18-25. We will still be open for the festivals, and will update here when we re-open
