Our Practices
Supernatural Produce & Products
We farm with no tractor, and only basic tools.
We have permanent raised beds which are built up yearly with organic earth matter
No tilling on established beds. This ensures we do not disrupt our precious micro-organisms and soil life
​
Utilizing insects and companion planting to deter pest infestations.
We use natural organic gardening solutions such as insect netting to protect our crops from pests. We are a no spray farm meaning we only spray healthy natural foliar solutions onto our plants such as seaweed extract.
​​
Beautiful permaculture inspired swales and food forest patches are interwoven into our property to create biodiversity and beauty on this land.
​
​
We have 4 separate plots dedicated to creating forests of food
We’re all familiar with the concept of forests —
Lush, abundant expanses of pristine wilderness, teeming with life, a richness of biodiversity and awe-inspiring to behold.
Trees and plants intertwined, filling every possible space, the very well-spring of life itself!
Forests exist fine on their own. There’s no mowing, weeding, spraying, or digging
required. No pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides or nasty chemicals.
By understanding how forests grow and sustain themselves without human intervention, we can learn from Nature, copy the systems and patterns to model our own forests — ones filled with trees and plants that produce the food we can eat.
We can design and construct the most sustainable food production systems
possible; perfected, refined and cared for by Mother Nature herself .
