Rooted in Tradition, Growing Toward the Future
What is the secret to soil health isn't what we add to the soil—but how to support what's already there?
Six Farms, One Shared Mission
We're a team of five local farmers exploring how regenerative practices can heal our soil, strengthen our food systems, and help us adapt to our changing climate—one growing season at a time.
Building Solutions from the Ground Up
Together, we're conducting soil health demonstrations tailored to each farm's reality—our specific crops, methods, and goals. By testing our soil throughout the growing season, we're building real-world knowledge about how regenerative practices work on different types of land with different approaches.
Climate change is reshaping how we farm, but we're not facing it alone. By studying soil health as a team, we're discovering practices that don't just improve our individual farms—we're creating a blueprint for how small-scale agriculture can be part of the climate solution.
Our Farms, Our Stories.
Each of our farms tells a different story. From small vegetable operations to diverse crop rotations, we bring unique perspectives to the table. What unites us is our commitment to understanding how the land beneath our feet can be both healthier and more resilient.
This season, we're not just farming—we're learning together. Through ongoing conversations, we're sharing what drives our farming decisions, the challenges we face, and the dreams we have for our land's future.
