Our Story

From pasture to living soil

For decades, this land was cattle pasture. Years of grazing and heavy hooves packed the earth hard. Rain ran off instead of soaking in, topsoil washed away, and the forest that once covered these hills gave way to a single layer of grass. What was left was quiet, tired ground.

We saw it differently. Soil isn’t just dirt. It’s a living system, and given the chance, it heals.

So we started there. We broke up the compaction with deep-rooted plants instead of machines. We fed the ground with compost, mulch and fallen biomass. We planted in layers, from ground cover to fruit trees to canopy, the way a tropical forest grows on its own. Slowly, the soil got darker, softer and full of life again.

Today the land holds water. Birds, insects and pollinators have come back. Where there was one kind of grass, there are now hundreds of species growing together. And it feeds us. Every harvest that reaches the Farm Shop grew from ground that was once written off.

About Us

Heal the soil, and it will feed you

We believe in healing the soil and meeting our basic needs in a way that works with nature, not against it. The farm is about building a deeper connection with the land, and a living ecosystem that nourishes both people and the wild.

Nature knows how to regenerate. Our job is to give it the right care and then get out of the way. Guided by permaculture, agroforestry and regenerative agriculture, we restore depleted soil, bring back biodiversity, and grow food that’s good for the people who eat it and for the planet that grows it.

We pair modern regenerative techniques with traditional wisdom:

Syntropic farming

Planting in layers and in succession, so each crop prepares the ground for the next, the way a forest builds itself.

Permaculture principles

Designing the farm as a whole system where water, plants, animals and people support each other.

Composting & Hugelkultur

Turning fallen wood, leaves and kitchen scraps back into rich, water-holding soil.

Everything in the Farm Shop comes out of this cycle: grown here, from living soil, with care.
