We grow produce for the local community and our visitors. On summer Saturdays, our produce is available at the Heather Ridge Farm store and at our popup in front of Pidgin in Oak Hill.
Although we do not have organic certification, our garden is “organic” in the sense that we never use synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, or genetically modified products. Maintaining soil and ecosystem health is essential to our approach. We do not till our fields because tillage destroys the structure and life of the soil. We source seeds from independent farmer-breeders, germinate them in premium certified organic compost-based soil, and fertilize using compost.
We strive to support biodiversity in the garden and beyond. Acknowledging that agriculture is fundamentally unnatural, and trusting that Nature spontaneously restores balance, we aim to grow high-quality crops with minimal disturbance to the intricately interconnected systems of the living world.
