About the Farm

Background

The farm has been active since at least 2013, with a focus on growing a variety of organic produce and flowers. They have been involved in local farmers markets and restaurant supply, showcasing their commitment to community and quality. Over the years, they have expanded their infrastructure, including the addition of high tunnels for winter salad greens and coolers for root crop storage.

Practices

The farm employs certified organic methods, ensuring that their vegetables and flowers are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. They use a combination of traditional and modern farming techniques, such as an old Farmall 140 tractor for disking and a Grillo walk-behind tiller for soil preparation. Their high tunnels, which are unheated but feature roll-up sides for ventilation, allow them to grow crops throughout the winter, demonstrating a commitment to extending the growing season and maximizing land use.

The Rest

The farm also engages in innovative practices like using a bike-powered root crop washer, highlighting their creative approach to sustainable farming. They offer CSA shares and have a presence at local farmers markets, making their produce accessible to the community. Additionally, they have a history of overcoming challenges, such as technology issues, to maintain their operations and continue providing high-quality produce.
