About
We're a 20-acre certified organic vegetable farm located only two miles north of downtown Burlington. We grow over 50 varieties of vegetables and herbs and we sell the freshest vegetables directly to our local restaurants and grocery stores. We want people to be connected to their food, to eat seasonally, and to get to know their farmers.
Our organic approach to weed and pest management includes systems of crop rotation, cover cropping, and composting to manage the health of our soils and vegetables. We also rely on hand weeding, hoeing, a variety of mechanical tools, and our fleet of tractors to cultivate the soil and manage weeds.
During the growing season, we harvest entirely by hand and deliver twice a week to local grocers, restaurants, schools, and cafes. On Saturdays through the Spring, Summer, and Fall, we sell our produce at the Burlington Farmers Market in City Hall Park. During the Winter months, we sell our produce online through our Winter Farm Store.
