About Lone Birch
Brand Story
When H. Lloyd Miller (the great-grandfather of the current owners) began his farm in the late 1940's, he planted quite a few birch trees around the acreage. Over time, all of these trees has died....except one. That "Lone Birch" tree is a reminder of our past, and the value of caring for the land and family.
