Here on the Living Farm growing naturally starts from the ground up. We work with the soil to create a nutrient and micro organism rich foundation for our plants to grow in. Animal fertilizer from our own organically raised livestock and crop rotation coupled with natural mineral nutrients feed the soil. No synthetic chemicals or pesticides are used. These rich soils produce nutrient rich grains, hay and pastures which feed The Living Farm livestock. As it currently stands, The Living Farm owns 130 acres and is leasing 80 acres. Our farm is a really exciting place; we have wonderful crops and animals.
Our farm crops include: naturally grown grass and alfalfa hay, all natural barley, triticale and non GMO corn, wonderful grass pastures and compost by the piles.
