FAQ

Are you organic?

Yes, we use organic and sustainable farming methods. Practices such as yearly rotating crops, under sowing and overwintering cover crops to prevent soil erosion and nutrient leaching and recycling animal and plant wastes through composting are some of the ways we live out organic agriculture. We don’t use any chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or pesticides. A lot of what we do is simply trying to make plants healthy and happy. Growing with non-GMO seeds, we look for varieties that do well in our climate and the times within the year that each plant prefers.

We farm in a manner that seeks to work with and alongside nature, rather than fighting against nature or trying to dominate it. Our hope is to lighten the load on the earth and contribute to the well-being of all creation. To this end we seek to cultivate food that is both healthy for the eater and equitable for all those that contributed to its growth, from the microorganisms to the farmers on their knees in the dirt.

We have not applied for organic certification, as we sell all our vegetables direct to the consumer. You are welcome to ask us about any of our farming methods – we welcome your questions.
