The grow the alfalfa and grass to feed their own heard of cattle, milk them and make their own ice cream and dairy products. They have their own bakery for the buns but I don't think they have any chicken farms. They do have there own fleet of trucks, and their own construction company to build the stores, and their own repair folks to maintain the stores.
I am in there on a regular basis buying bananas, bread, milk, grapes, fresh baked cookies, and ice cream and more.

We have the same type of farm restaurant/store here also.
It's only open in the summer and they also have tractor pulled buses that tour the milking barn and other parts for a couple bucks.
It's packed every day.
