About the Farm
Background
Located in Bath, Michigan, the farm has established itself as a key player in the local food system by offering both winter and summer CSA shares. Known for its commitment to organic practices, the farm supplies specialty organic produce to local restaurants and consumers.
Practices
The farm adheres to Certified Organic standards, focusing on organic transplant production and specialty produce. Emphasizing a hyper-local approach, all produce is sold within a 25-mile radius, with an intention to maintain a foodshed within a 100-mile radius. This approach ensures a personal connection with the consumers and strengthens the local food system.
The Rest
In addition to farming, the business offers consulting services to local producers, helping to enhance organic farming practices in the community. The concept of a foodshed is central to their philosophy, highlighting the interconnectedness of the land, food routes, markets, and consumers.
