We are a small, family farm using organic practices to grow the best veggies possible for our community! We use organic farming practices because we believe that taking care of the soil nurtures both the land and all those who enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Sunflower Cover Crop

At the heart of our commitment to the soil is our dedication to cover cropping, a method that blankets the soil with diverse plant species when not actively growing a vegetable crop. This not only prevents erosion but also enriches the soil, and provides habitat for beneficial insects, fostering a robust ecosystem that enhances overall soil health. This translates to healthier, more robust, and more nourishing vegetables for you!

We don’t use synthetic pesticides, and instead rely most heavily on beneficial insects, our allies in the fields! Ladybugs, bees, and other natural predators play a vital role in maintaining a balanced environment. We also work to create a diverse ecosystem filled with an abundance of flowering plants to ensure our smallest workers want to stick around and work with us!

On our farm we also practice minimal tillage. We try our best to preserve the soil structure and minimize disruption to the delicate ecosystem of microbiology and all sorts of soil dwelling critters just below the surface.

We grow many of our crops in a “no-till” garden and allow earthworms to do the work of preparing the soil between crops instead of a tiller.

We believe in working with the earth, not against it. To that end, we never use any synthetic fertilizer or pesticide on our farm. We use composted chicken manure, cover cropping, and compost for fertility. For pest control we rely on a combination of cultural practices (timing, row covers), beneficial insects, and applications of probiotic sprays.

By opting for organic alternatives and time-honored techniques, we prioritize the long-term health of our farm, the surrounding environment, and the well-being of those who enjoy our harvest.
