Goals, Values, Vision

I personally am a novice farmer and gardener, save for the flowers and veggies I ooccasionally helped my mom with when I was a kid and teenager. My partner, on the other hand, has been elbow deep farming since he was a young child. We plan to grow mushrooms and microgreens as well as harvest honey. Our goal is to have certified organic produce to sell at a reasonable price to help our fellow human.

We want nothing more than to have a simple, love and joy-filled life, living off the land and giving back to our community.

Certified Organic, Organic Practices

To clarify, we do not live in an area we can have an actual farm, but we have multiple gardens and we aalso raise as many chickens as the city will allow. 

Our first year we wouldn't be able to be certified organic, but plan to be able to be by our third year. Until the time we can be completely certified organic, we would be as organic as possible.
