Project
Farm Name
Fresh Isle Farms
Farm Project Description
Fresh Isle Farms is a ecologically driven farm project seeking to establish long-term food sovereignty through regenerative growing practices, and local food distribution. Our goal is to steward a piece of land in partnership with landholders who share our values around sustainable agriculture, and land care.
We plan to cultivate a diverse range of vegetables, herbs, perennial and cover crops using organic, low-till methods that prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and climate resilience.
The vision for Fresh Isle Farms is to become a replicable model of a small-scale farm that strengthens local food systems while cultivating a deeper connection between food, and land.
