The Story Behind The Food

Here at the farm, we believe the food we grow, the soil we grow it in, and the environment around it are equally important. That’s why we practice no‑till farming and avoid pesticides — to promote thriving soil life, and produce healthier, more resilient crops.

 

For years we have shared our garden’s abundance with neighbors and friends. Now we are taking that effort to the next level — reaching beyond our circle to everyone who wants to know the story behind their food.

By expanding our cultivated land, we aim to help people meet their goals and take ownership of where their food comes from. Whether you want fresher produce, clearer connections to growers, or a role in shaping local food systems, our farm will provide transparency, quality, and opportunity.

Join us as we grow — not just crops, but relationships, knowledge, and a healthier, more resilient food future for our community.

This is WHO WE ARE, OUR MISSION and OUR METHODS

 

  • Our farm consists of several 50ft garden plots, a large 50 ft caterpillar tunnel and a 100ft caterpillar tunnel.

  • We are committed to leaving the land more fertile then it was found.

  • Our compost is purchased LOCALLY. And we create our own compost from our worms, rabbits, leaves…all to boost soil health to make food just taste better

  • Minimal tillage practices are used to ensure the healthiest of soil and preserve the many ecosystems that exist in and about the soil.

  • Small handscale tools are used to harvest your food

  • Harvested goods are turned around within 48 hours…to keep it FRESH!

We continue to educate ourselves by using resources available to us on the Penn State University. We have taken free seminars to increase our knowledge about our soil and environment.
