Our greenhouse and barn are home to our sustainably grown produce and pollution free Tilapia. Our poly-culture system utilizes the nutrient water from our fish to irrigate both our hydroponic and soil production. Home Grown adds absolutely no antibiotics or dyes in the grow out process of the fish nor do we use any synthetic nutrients, herbicides, fungicides or pesticides on our produce. Home Grown Farm and Market is heated and electricity is generated using vegetable oil we collect from area businesses. Home Grown has created a more energy efficient model of sustainable food production. Clean Food, in a Truly Clean Way.
Tilapia will be ready to harvest approximately 6 -7 , months after stocking. We reasonably expect to stock fish by the end of January.
We stock our store with an assortment of fruits and vegetables, most grown on our farm and in our greenhouse; some from local area farmers. We price our fruits and veggies by calling and shopping around area grocery stores. Our aim is to make available clean, fresh fish and produce at affordable and competitive prices. Access to clean food has always been a value and motivator at Home Grown. As the economy continues to be more and more challenging, the importance of food security and access grows. We are committed to keeping our methods sustainable and our prices affordable. Some say that this may cheapen the 'idea' of value. We say,"People know what value is." We say ,"Clean food must be accessible to all." Now, THAT'S valuable.
