General Farm Info: 2 to 3 acre ever-expanding vegetable garden. An orchard with several varieties of apples and plums. We love making a connection both with our CSA members who eat the food we prepare and the soil in which it is grown. We view our farm operation as a cycle of life; for example, we feed garden scraps to our animals, and then compost the animal manure to enrich our soil. The farm is home to a few cows, small flock of sheep, chickens and our daughter's horse.
