We are a small organic farm that does not use tractors. We farm by hand with a passion for top-quality produce which we feel cannot be achieved by farming on large acreage or by using tractors. The intimacy with our crops is lost riding up in a tractor all day. Our focus is doing it better, not necessarily bigger. While we do use modern tools and methods which allows us to remain competitive, all planting, weeding, cultivation, and harvesting is done by hand. This allows us to work
with
mother nature rather than overwhelming her with large tractors and chemicals.
Organic Methods
We have begun the process of Organic Certification. To regularly produce top quality vegetables year-in and year-out we must have very fertile soil, and be continuously improving the soil that our plant grow in. Therefore, we must grow according to strict Organic standards. Rototilling destroys the soil structure, and for the soil to act accordingly, we do not till our soil or use plastic mulch.
We test both our water and our soils annually to ensure it is of the highest quality.
