<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">We have put into production, land that has been ignored by modern agriculture for over 50 years.&nbsp; Consequently, it is free of all the common chemical compounds found on conventional farms today.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">Cover crops are planted in the fall to stabilize the soil, sequester nutrients and add biomass to the soil.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">The soil is fortified with compost made available by local horse and livestock farms.&nbsp; It is further amended with naturally occurring and organically approved minerals.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">When available, we choose organically produced seeds.&nbsp; In our greenhouse, we utilize locally created and organically approved potting soils.&nbsp; Our trays and containers are manufactured locally.&nbsp; Heat is provided to the greenhouse via a wood gasification boiler that burns with 90% efficiency.&nbsp; The wood is grown and cut on the farm.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">We control weeds with crop rotation, plastic and compost mulch, and mechanically.&nbsp; And when all else fails, painstakingly by hand.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">We control insects and microbial pests with crop rotation, mulch, floating row cover, beneficial microbes and organically approved biologically based agents.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #800080;">Our crops are promptly harvested when ripe and delivered fresh.</span></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
