OUR PURPOSE is to support the vitality of our community by providing garden produce grown using regenerative organic practices which support ecosystem vitality including carbon sequestration while also providing the farmers/farm staff with a sustainable living and beautiful place to work.
Our Farm Values
Communication.
We know we are communicating well when… we hear about the concerns or excitement of our customers and when we are able to see customers responding to social media posts or engaging in face-to-face conversations and returning to buy our produce.
Soil Health.
We know we are supporting soil health when vibrant plant life covers the soil, when our produce is healthy even when weather conditions may be too wet or too dry, when weed pressure is low, when the soil is soft and friable.
Community.
We know we are valuing community when we take time to invite people to the farm or participate in community speaking events where we can engage in meaningful conversations or activities that address the needs of the wider community.
Beautiful produce.
We know we are providing beautiful produce when we observe how it has been skillfully harvested, cleaned, and stored and then enjoyed by our customers.
Fair exchange.
We know we are valuing fair exchange when the prices of our produce are competitive while at the same time we are able to live happily off the proceeds of our sales.
What is a Sundog?
