Our Commitment to
Land Stewardship
A component of sustainable stewardship, environmental stewardship is about using practices that have a positive impact on the land and its resources. This includes both efforts to reduce damage that has already occurred, as well as taking measures to prevent future damage.
Conservation and soil health practices on our farm include:
-
use of perennial pastures
-
use of cover crops on our garlic and flower beds
-
integrating crop and animal systems by having our sheep graze pasture that has been hayed
-
support of the natural riparian zones created by the Jarvis creek running through our property
-
planting of native tree and shrub species
-
controlling invasive plants
-
using manure in complement to synthetic fertilizers
