The online shop is stocked with a variety of products that we create with our farm harvests each year. Be sure to check out the Nebraska Wildflower line of tea, soaps and candles, all of which put the spotlight on the native flowers in our certified pollinator garden. Potpourri, spice jars, bulk dried herbs, gift baskets, and fruit jam are also mainstays in our shop.

Benson Bounty products are created with fruits, herbs, and flowers that are harvested from our farm, where we use sustainable and organic farming practices. When you shop Benson Bounty, you are choosing a family business that builds wildlife habitat and soil health, fosters community, supports local businesses and organizations, and grows and creates a variety of high quality, fresh farm products. We aim to be environmentally-friendly and great stewards of this land.β β
A few additional examples of our practices:
- Waterwise landscaping: roughly 3/4 of our growing space is filled with perennials that are not irrigated
- Clean harvests: no use of pesticides/herbicides in any form
- Limited food waste: scraps are sustenance for our backyard chickens and compost piles
- Product packaging: reusable, recyclable, and/or packaging made of recycled materials is used; some products are offered as zero waste
- Repurposed packing supplies: materials that arrive to us with orders of mason jars, spice jars, etc. are used to ship orders

As a home-based business without open retail hours, it was essential to get creative to be accessible for our customers. Free farm pick up and a number of delivery and shipping methods are currently available as checkout options through our online shop.
Delivery is available to both Omaha addresses as well as to a few of the surrounding cities that are part of the greater metro area: Bellevue, Papillion, LaVista, Gretna, Elkhorn, Blair, Council Bluffs. Delivery zones are priced accordingly; customers select the option that corresponds with their delivery address. Unfortunately, if the town is not listed above, we do not deliver there at this time.
Customers can find some of our products locally at the following retail locations: TakeRoot Farm Stop, Ellsworth Crossing, Exist Green.
Benson Bounty also pops up at local farmers markets and events, and hosts on-site open houses and workshops. We encourage you to sign up for our newsletter or follow us on social media for important event updates; event dates and times are also updated on our website.
Thank you for meeting us where we are all these years! This flexibility has allowed us to stay at home and be the primary caregivers for our growing children.
