About Our Crops - Certified Organic

Our farm is certified organic under the Bay State Organic/ USDA National Organic Program. All vegetables sold at our stand are free of snthetic pesticides and synthetic fertilizer. They have been grown following the sustainable principles of organic land care. It is important to note, however, that our orchard fruit (apples and peaches and quinces) are cultivated using IPM (integrated pest management) practices and we occasionally must use a non-organic spray to save our crop. Whenever possible we use organic practices on the orchard fruit, but it is not 100% - an important distinction from our vegetables and low-growing fruits. Our chickens and pigs are raised on natural, anti-biotic free grain and fresh pasture grass.
