Here on our farm, I grow some beautiful vegetables! We were at one time Certified Naturally Grown. There hasn't been a chemical on our farm in nearly 20 years. The gardens and soils are regularly mulched and amended with compost from our animals. The soil life on a microbial level is teeming and very healthy. There are a half-dozen or so raised beds in place that will stay here. There is a separate herb garden, a generously-sized orchard and numerous perennial plantings all over the property. Enjoy some of the pictures here of the plant life on our farm. The greenhouse is a lost cause. It has since met some unfortunate weather issues. Good luck with that.
