Rillington Fields is a growing and diversified farm in Tifton, GA. We raise meat goats, poultry, pine trees, pigeon peas, rye, pearl millet, soy beans and mung beans. Set on about 130 acres in South Georgia, the farm is committed to producing quality products through intensive management and no-tillage agriculture. We desire to glorify God and serve local markets through our efforts. I am Michael and am thankful that you have dropped by to poke around and explore.!
My father runs the farm whilst I am away at graduate school at the University of Missouri. So, three cheers for my dear ole Dad! How wonderful it will be when we can toil together and continue to build the farm and allied businesses.
Our farm’s name originates from the area where my dad’s home in England is located, and where my Grandma and an uncle and his family still reside. Rillington Fields is a small collection of houses and farms outside of the North Yorkshire village of Rillington.
For now, this site may have little to do with the farm directly, but shall serve as an avenue to share our emerging view of agriculture, my deepening in reliance on the Gospel, and life around us. I cannot promise you great depth or skill, only occasional scribbles. Will you join me?
As my piano teacher used to ask me:
“Any questions, comments, snide remarks?”

I am interested in bagged rye seed . My number is 229-815-4560
My name is Genia and I am wondering if you have any Wrens Abruzzi seed this year and how much for a 50 lb bag? You can email me at eagleswings@irishnation.com or call me at 850-398-7364.
Thank you!
We live in the north GA mtns. and garden every year. Since we haven’t planted any cover crops in a long time to improve the soil, this fall the 3td week of Sept. we planted albruzzi rye purchased from out local co op. The rye has only grown to about 12 to 15 inches. Another time in another garden the rye grew to 3 to 4 feet. Can’t figure out why its not doing as well this time. When we turn it under before it goes to seed I plan to send soil samples in to be tested…..just thot you may know what hinders growth in world of rye. Thanks for any advice you may have.
Hey Mrs. Shirley,
Did you receive my response to your inquiry in your e-mail that I sent you directly? At home in South Georgia, warmer temps this winter has caused there to be some shooting up of taller rye heads, but we hope that it does not happen too much or late cold may hurt the crop. How is you’s doing?
