We are a certified live plant nursery and sell at Atlanta area farmers markets. We focus on native, edible, useful, medicinal and pollinator-friendly plants. We have about 2 acres and are also growing grains and have chickens for eggs, and bees for honey (still consider ourselves inexperienced in both).
Organic methods: Low-Income/Low-Cost, Low-Input Food/Herb/Flower production, Composting, Companion planting, Pollinator-friendly gardens, Seed saving, no pesticides or herbicides, hugelkulture, terracing, forest farming, rain barrels, natural erosion control. Using natural, free, cheap local materials for building.
Certifications: I am only selling seedlings, and while I am organic we're not certified organic.
Current projects: Terracing hillsides, 2-3 more chicken coops build out, establishing bee hives, larger composting center, felling trees for more sunlight, planting seedlings, watering, transplanting, harvesting, saving seeds, collecting eggs, cleaning out chicken coops, build squirrel/bird/rabbit/chipmunk/deer/possom deterrents, wattling fences, creating spaces for water overflow to prevent flooding in heavy rain events along our creek, expand native plant ecosystem, install bat houses for mosquito control, create lovely space for outside education or event space (labelling all flora and sustainable growing methods), more herb spirals and keyhole gardens...so much more!
