Jacob Springs
Farm

Boulder, Colorado

Ongoing documentary series

Jacob Springs is a diversified local farm where animals, pasture, grain, water, and daily labor form one connected system.

Founded in 2010 just outside Boulder, the farm raises grass-fed livestock, keeps a small dairy, and grows grains and seasonal produce. The photographs stay close to the physical routines of the place—from milking and bottling to feeding, repair, and dusk in the pasture.
