About the Farm
Background
Hog's Back Farm has built a reputation for delivering fresh, clean, and healthful food directly from their fields to their members. Over the years, they have fostered a strong sense of community among their members, encouraging involvement through field days, steering committees, and regular farm visits. Although they no longer offer CSA shares, their past newsletters and recipes remain accessible for those interested in their journey.
Practices
The farm employs a variety of methods to ensure the health and vitality of their produce and land. They avoid chemical herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers, opting instead for cover crops, crop rotations, and composting. These practices not only enhance the flavor and nutrition of their vegetables but also contribute to the well-being of the broader community.
The Rest
Potential visitors and customers can explore past newsletters and recipes on their website to gain a deeper understanding of the farm's operations and philosophy. Internship opportunities are also available for those looking to get hands-on experience in sustainable farming.
