Farming in Concert with Nature
How we cultivate beyond-organic gourmet garlic, build thriving soils, and protect our local ecosystem
100% Chemical Free
Absolutely no chemical fertilizers, synthetic pesticides, or toxic herbicides are used on our land.
Living Soils
We focus heavily on soil biology using composting, cover cropping, and natural bed-tarping to suppress weeds.
Biodiversity
We resist monoculture by interplanting crops, maintaining diverse pastures, and hosting honeybee hives.
Holistic Pasture Management
We utilize small-scale rotational grazing with our goats. Moving our livestock frequently to fresh pasture areas mimics natural herd movements, preventing overgrazing while ensuring our animals always have access to high-quality forage. This natural cycle efficiently breaks down organic matter, restores nutrients to the soil, and builds a deep, resilient soil structure completely naturally.
A Toxin-Free Environment
We think perfect, monoculture lawns are overrated. By letting dandelions and wild violets bloom across our land, we protect essential early-season nectar sources for our honeybees and native pollinators. This chemical-free approach ensures our family and animals can roam barefoot outdoors completely free from toxic health risks. To further protect our acreage, our farm is proudly registered with FieldWatch to safeguard our specialty crops against residential chemical drift from surrounding areas.
Working with Seasonal Cycles
As autumn arrives, our focus shifts entirely to garlic planting. To prepare our growing beds sustainably, we utilize reusable plastic tarps for two to three months before planting. Tarping blocks out light to naturally manage weed seeds and break down organic matter without the use of toxic chemical herbicides. This practice allows us to clear clean, nutrient-dense beds for our gourmet garlic crops while keeping our soil biome healthy and thriving.
