Join us in starting a sustainable organic farm! and gain from it! scroll to the bottom to see video and contribution levels!
We have a small farm and good soil. We want to share the satisfaction of growing with a no-till farming method by hand. We can't all live on a farm but we CAN contribute and be part of one!! You can receive so many benefits from helping our farm get going! We want to teach and provide for others the great health benefits the land can give. We have the work ethic, and the know-how. We have the space and the passion. We need the partners to help us get going, and prove we can change the way our food is grown and produced. With sustainable practices we can build a better future!
I put the pigs in the garden late one fall. They cleaned up all weeds and left over vegetable leaves, they also dug up the soil and ate all the grubs! We use everything from the land to go back into the soil. The ducks and chickens and the pigs and cows all contribute to the sustainable practices.
The funds raised will make it possible to start seeds indoors with grow lights. We also will use the funds to build a hoop house. This will protect plants and extend our growing season. We also want to buy the correct hand tools to cultivate the soil and harvest the crops. We will need hoses and wheel barrows. I am excited to do the heavy work and dig in the dirt!
If our goal is met we will be able to have high quality produce to bring into the cities farm markets. This brings a part of the healthy farm to more people.
In the future I would like to hold teaching and farming events to help others see how possible it is to do! Small farms can make a very big difference! Join us in this growth adventure and contribute and reap the rewards!
