Our Key Growing Principles
No Till
- We avoid all tilling on our farm to help keep the soil as healthy as possible.
- Healthy soil with good structure = healthy plants and an ecosystem that works together to control any pests.
No Pesticides or Herbicides
- Since we let our farm run like an ecosystem, we have minimal pest problems. For any major problems that may arise, we will introduce beneficial insects such as ladybugs to assist us.
- We also built our beds in a way that limits weed seed germination initially and have very few issues with weeds. By not tilling the soil and adding mulch each spring, we are also limiting weeds.
Smart Design
- By following Permaculture design methods, we have been able to enhance the soil on our land, reduce erosion (we grow on a hillside), and increase production substantially.
- Stay tuned for many new blog posts that include details on our designs that could work for you too!
