Our growing practices are continuously evolving as we integrate the latest research from the sustainable agriculture community and draw on our own experiences to refine and improve our methods.
Although we are not certified organic, we surpass the minimal standards of organic certification by using similar practices and prioritizing the surrounding ecology, soil health, biodiversity, and nutrient density of crops.
OUR FUNDAMENTAL PRACTICES |
Harvesting at peak freshness, and delivering to our customers as soon as possible to ensure optimal quality and flavor
Using compost and other organic amendments to increase soil fertility Testing our soil to manage nutrients and build soil health Using cover crops and crop rotations to promote soil health and biodiversity Remineralizing our soil with rock dust and other inputs to replenish depleted soil Minimizing tillage and soil disturbance to prevent soil erosion and improve soil structure Attracting beneficial insects and microorganisms to create a diverse ecological environment for natural pest control Using greenhouses and hoophouses to extend the season and improve crop quality Promoting microbial health through the use of compost teas and other inoculants |
