The Bouchard Family vision for the farm by James Bouchard:

My vision for the Commerce farm property (known as the Nunn farm) is a high quality mixed-use development where people can live, work, and play.  My wife and I are happy to now be living full-time on the farm,  We want to  enjoy our life, but we also want to provide a place that would serve the community needs.  I’ve owned the Commerce property for 30 years, learning farming and love of the land from Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Nunn, who became treasured friends. What is built on this property will respect the land in allowing extensive green space and  will be of value for the Commerce community, as a gateway to the historical city of Commerce.

We have a 20-year master plan of development to meet the growing needs of the community. There are many phases to this master plan and the first phase of development  is currently underway. "The Veggie Patch at Bouchard Farms" includes 7 standard size hoop houses for leafy greens and vegetables, an oversized greenhouse  and 15 acres of farmland to be used year round for growing quality vegetables, herbs, and fruits.
