Location + History
Growing Practices
Our farm sits on 20 acres of beautiful land on Mount Lebanon. This historic site was sacred to the native Mahicans, and later the Shakers, both of whom’s agricultural practices and connection to the land continue to inspire the work we do today. We moved here in 2012 and started our first season growing vegetables for 35 members on 1.5 acres with one-horse and a lot of hard work.
We strive to bring our community nourishing, high quality, and delicious vegetables all season long. To accomplish this goal we go to great lengths to preserve and build the health of our soils and ecology. We rely on a mix of our two Belgian draft horses and two tractors. Our soil-based system focuses on diversity, cover cropping, composts, minerals amendments, and careful crop rotation. In line with and going beyond our organic certification, we do not use any synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. We strive to balance staying light on the land and sensitive to its biological rhythms with growing enough bountiful produce to fulfill our mission and sustain our business.
