Farm Project Plan Description We are proposing a diversified, regenerative farm that focuses on sustainable fiber and food production, biodiversity enhancement, and community education. Our mission is to grow crops and raise livestock in ways that support ecological health, enrich soil, and strengthen local food systems, while also advancing innovative practices in Electromagnetic Field (EMF) mitigation for agricultural settings. Project Vision Our farm will be a thriving example of regenerative agriculture, combining traditional farming practices with forward-thinking ecological innovations. We will produce high-quality flax for linen fiber, raise sheep for wool, cultivate organic vegetables and flowers, and implement specialized EMF-aware designs for agricultural infrastructure especially bee hives to support pollinator health throughout the farm. Core Farm Components Flax for Linen Production We will cultivate flax as a primary fiber crop, using organic, soil-building practices designed to enhance soil health and biodiversity. Beyond cultivation, we will process the flax on-site using traditional and modern techniques from retting and scutching to spinning and weaving. Our long-term goal is to produce farm-to-finished linen products, creating value-added textiles that highlight local craftsmanship and sustainable fiber systems. Farm Workshops & Education: We will host hands-on workshops in flax processing, natural dyeing, spinning, and linen weaving to share knowledge with community members, beginning farmers, fiber artists, and school groups. Sheep for Wool Our flock of sheep will serve multiple purposes: • Producing high-quality wool for fiber and value-added wool products • Enhancing pasture health through managed grazing • Supporting farm nutrient cycling We will use rotational grazing systems to improve pasture productivity, sequester carbon, and reduce external inputs. Wool will be processed into yarn, felt, and finished products to be sold locally or used in educational programming. EMF-Focused Agricultural Innovation In addition to food and fiber production, our farm is home to a registered company specializing in EMF mitigation strategies for agricultural environments. We will: • Pioneer placement and design techniques for farm infrastructure that reduce unnecessary EMF exposure • Develop low-EMF bee hive systems to support pollinator health addressing a growing concern among beekeepers • Monitor and refine EMF-aware practices in crop and livestock areas This research and implementation will not only benefit our operation but also serve as a demonstration model for other farms interested in EMF awareness and pollinator protection. Vegetables and Flower Production We will grow a diverse selection of vegetables and specialty flowers for our bees and honey production. These plantings will: • Enhance farm biodiversity • Provide habitat and forage for beneficial insects • Support rotational and complementary planting with flax and pasture systems Our diversified field plan will maximize seasonal productivity and ensure consistent harvests for both vegetable boxes and floral bouquets. Community Engagement & Education We are committed to sharing our farm as a living classroom. Planned activities include: • Farm tours: seasonal tours for schools, youth groups, and adult learners • Workshops & skill-shares: flax processing, natural fiber arts, organic vegetable production, pollinator ecology, and EMF awareness in agricultural settings • Community volunteer days: engaging local residents and beginning farmers in hands-on farm work These programs will foster agricultural literacy, practical skills, and a deeper connection between people and the land.
Ready to seed preferred, fencing for animals and shelters would be great!
