Rezumat
We run a CSA, which is a way for us to have a relationship with our members and they to have a relationship with our farm. We see farming as a sustainable future for our family. Providing high quality, naturally grown local produce is our goal. We expect to continue to grow substantially over the coming years, so if you are unable to join this year, please contact us anyway, as we may have a spot to offer you in the future.
We use natural and sustainable growing techniques, preferring heirloom varieties, when appropriate. Any chemicals we may use on our farm are certified organic or natural (for instance baking soda is effective mildew control.) We use integrated pest management and heavy rotation as our primary pest control methods.
We are picky about what we eat, and if we would not eat it we will not sell it to you. We started growing because getting high quality, sustainable produce was difficult a decade ago. What started as a small garden has now become our passion and our life.
