Observations

  • In 2019, we began with a neglected horse farm with a shallow layer of sandy/clay topsoil. After 4 years of focus on rebuilding soil with organic matter, we have established a strong base to continue adding to each year.
  • We now have an abundance of diverse species including pollinators and other beneficials, birds, and earthworms.

How to buy

  • From our Farm gate /farm Stand, and from a local Food Hub distributor, South Island Farm Hub (sifarmhub.ca)
