Farm Project Description
I would like to grow a variety of vegetables, wild mushrooms, fruits, cut flowers, herbs and seedlings.
I am an organic grower who focuses on healthy soil biology, diverse plantings, open pollinated seeds and a mixture of perennial and annual plant matetial. I have also become enamoured with cultivating a variety of wild mushrooms, so shade is not a problem for me!
I absolutely love nature and ecology and farm in conjuction with the surrounding ecosystems and wildlife.
