Farm points of interest shared by the farmers:
  • We have transitioned from a grazing focus to no till vegetable production in 2019
  • We currently have approximately a 1/2 acre of permanent beds in production utilizing a low/no till cultivation method that includes the use occeltation tarps, broad forking, and tilther to prepare beds for planting.
  • of the 1/2 acre there are 3 high tunnels with 4,200 sqft in protective culture
  • We have worked with the NRCS to fund 2 of the 3 tunnels in the past and have a current contract with them to fund an additional 2,880 sqft of greenhouse as well as development of a hedgerow around the perimeter of the property.
  • In addition we are working with Point Blue Conservation Science and their ROOTS grant to fund the remaining costs of the hedgerows, irrigation, and bioswales for stormwater retention.
  • Our production is focused on quick growing crops and specialty asian greens that we sell through farmers market, restaurants, and Harvest Hub.
  • Our website is out of date and needs attention to reflect our current operations.
