ON THE FARM
Growing and sharing healthy food
We grow a wide range of seasonal fruits and vegetables using sustainable, organic farming practices.
Our locations
In San Luis Obispo, our mild winters and sun-soaked summers are perfect for growing all sorts of good stuff!
THE FIELD
173 Buckley Road in San Luis Obispo, CA
Our 1 acre field is farmed year-round using organic permaculture practices. Each season, we adjust produce varieties to better support those we serve.
THE ORCHARD
835 Serpa Ranch Road in San Luis Obispo
At our 1/2 acre orchard, you'll find trees of all sorts! We're growing apples, apricots, lemons, nectaries, peaches, plums, pears, and oranges.
Growing practices
We believe healthy soil is critical to supporting healthy people! We don’t use any synthetic herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms, and are committed to actively stewarding our land through our growing practices.
Our main field features a warm season row crop area and a no-till, year-round raised bed area, all of which is managed using organic practices. We even have a worm bin!
Companion planting
Buddy plants naturally boost growth and deter pests.
Non-chemical weed control
We fight our weeds with mulching, cardboard, and pulling them by hand.
Drip irrigation
Saving water by nourishing plants drop by drop.
Seed saving
Keeping seeds for the next growing season.
Recycling
Look for the blue bin in the volunteer shed!
Crop rotation
Swapping crop growing locations for healthier soil.
Cover cropping
While main crops are on break, cover crops like legumes protect our soil.
Hedgerows
Attracting pollinators and providing wind protection for crops.
Vermiculture
It's a fancy name for our worm bin.
Partners
It takes a community to feed a community! We partner with a variety of organizations around SLO County. Some donate land, some donate seedlings, provide nursery services, help prep our field with tractor work, recruit volunteers, or distribute produce.
