About the Farm
Background
Escargot Farm & Apothecary has carved out a niche in the local agricultural scene with its unique focus on escargot and crawfish, alongside a diverse array of culinary and medicinal herbs. Over the years, it has expanded its offerings to include mushrooms, garlic, onions, and various nightshades, becoming a multifaceted farmstead.
Practices
The farmstead employs a holistic approach to farming, integrating the cultivation of snails and crawfish with the growth of herbs and vegetables. This interconnected system ensures that the land is used efficiently and sustainably, with a focus on maintaining soil health and biodiversity. The cultivation of medicinal herbs suggests a deep understanding of plant properties and their benefits, while the inclusion of nightshades and mushrooms indicates a diverse crop rotation that supports soil fertility.
The Rest
Visitors are encouraged to call ahead before stopping by. The farmstead offers a range of events, classes, and internships, and even provides opportunities for guests to stay on the farm. Interested individuals can email for more information on scheduling and participation.
