Farming Practices
On our farm we believe that healthy soil is the first ingredient to nutritious vegetables. We are a non-mechanized, no till operation. This helps us build fertility in a way that allows us to get a lot out of small spaces. We are not a large farm by any means and this is a direct benefit to our customers. Every bag of greens and bunch of carrots is packaged by our small staff with a careful eye.
While we are not certified organic, we use organic practices. This means that we do not use any pesticides, herbicides or fungicides. In fact, we are a big fan of keeping pollinators included in our agro-ecology. We choose our crops carefully and save as much seed as is practical. This suits crops to our climate and encourages the resiliency of our farm. We do not find that we need to use any GMOs to accomplish this goal.
One of our favorite things to do is share a meal with people we love. Cooking and baking are important aspects of our lives. For this reason we choose crops with rich flavors. There is no replacement for eating vegetables that are freshly harvested and highly nutritious. We want to share this experience with our customers.
