We Grow Food in a Sustainable Way!
We use the term 'Beyond Organic' to describe our produce. We practice Organic methods which include Organic or Heirloom Seeds, Organic Soil, Organic Fertilizers, and absolutely no GMOs or chemical pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, or fertilizers which would easily qualify us to be Certified Organic. We go beyond these Organic Principles and use plant based fuel in our vehicles, equipment, and to heat the greenhouse and farmhouse. We also are using aquaponics and developing no till gardening methods, rain collection, solar power, permaculture design, vertical gardening, and many other techniques to work with nature and our surroundings.
Our true focus is health. This includes all levels of mind, body, and spirit. We believe in growing healthy food and we are also growing healthy in the process. Wellness to us is based on eating clean whole foods and we believe eating in this manner gives your body what it needs to reverse many of the illnesses we experience in this country. A healthy diet with whole food plus good sleep and keeping your body moving can set a perfect foundation for you to heal. That is what your body is always trying to do!
We are very open with our knowledge and also hope to learn from you and your life experiences. Stop by for fresh produce throughout the summer and fall and be sure to watch our Facebook page for updates on Farm events including classes, work / fun days with pot lucks, and pictures & videos from the farm. :-)
