| How to buy | They grow vegetables on about 2.5 acres of in ground beds in Garfield. Produce goes to volunteers, food pantries, individuals, farm stands, restaurants, retailers and wholesalers, with monthly donations to the Valley View Church food pantry. There is a subscription program for 10 to 20 households with workshare and discounted options. They describe their approach to permaculture as equally focused on Earth Care and People Care, striving to work with ecological systems that bring abundance to earth and humanity. Their mission is to learn, teach, and practice organic gardening and farming in the places that have been neglected and abandoned. |
