About the Farm

Background

Located among ancient pines and scattered hardwood, this farm spans 5 acres and has become a haven for herbs that seem to appear naturally. The farm also grows raspberries, blackberries, apple trees, strawberries, and blueberries, providing a delightful experience for the grandchildren who love to wander and taste-test the produce.

Practices

The farm employs strategic planting and crop rotation to optimize sun exposure and soil health. No chemicals or pesticides are used; instead, peppermint water is occasionally sprayed to deter unwanted insects, and flowers are planted to attract beneficial ones. The farm relies on natural predators like Braconid Wasps to manage pests such as tomato hornworms.

The Rest

The farm emphasizes the medicinal uses of herbs, although it advises consulting a qualified medical practitioner for health issues. Visitors can enjoy a glass of iced Chaga, Nettle, and Lemon Balm while listening to the birds sing.
