Intro to Cricket Farming - Class Registration
Update: Site currently closed. Searching for new [commercial] location. All classes currently being held at the Backyard Farm.
We commercially raise crickets and process them for sale for human consumption in a facility regulated by multiple groups within the Department of Agriculture. At this facility, we house 200 batches (or 1 million crickets) and perform all aspects of cricket farming everyday. The facility is a 2,400 ft2 non-descript warehouse in an industrial section of Eugene, OR. Crickets are reared in just 1/2 (or 1,200 ft2) of the facility.
