They are a certified organic farm that grows in a regenerative manner which means they care for the soil without any pesticides or harmful fertilizers. They use sustainable methods such as cover crop and no till helping build nutrient soil, which then helps grow nutritious produce, in turn helps those who are food insecure obtain fresh food.
