About this Event
Join us for a 2 hour guided tour of the farm to see the ways we utilize the interconnectedness of nature to build soil health, maximize biodiversity, and grow the most nutrient-dense, flavorful food possible.
- Start in the market garden, a certified wildlife habitat that grows a variety of vegetables, herbs, and flowers. See first hand how we integrate biodiversity to regulate the balance of pest and disease while growing food
- Cows, chickens, sheep, ducks, goats and guardian dogs all have a role on our farm - who you'll see depends on the grazing rhythm
- Farm Fertility Center to learn how we build healthy soil rich in beneficial microbes using worms, compost, and biodynamic practices
- Wildlife Habitat & Pond, the centerpiece of the farm’s native restoration and wildlife habitat efforts
- The Fruit Basket, our most diverse orchard where we cultivate 60+ different fruit varieties with cover crop and wildlife habitat
- Alan York Lookout to take in sweeping views of the farm
- A visit to Itty, Emma the pig’s great-granddaughter piglet
