2. Have opportunities to learn how to grow chemical free organic food, how to make your own compost, how to harvest and preserve your food, and learn the ancient art of seed saving.
3. Be able to purchase or barter for a wide variety of fresh produce, fruit, and herbs available from the gardens at their peak of freshness and flavor.
4. If you purchase any products from our website and pick up at the gardens we will provide you with a 10% credit of additional items from the gardens.
If you are interested in opportunities to learn specific gardening skills, such as seed starting, planting, pruning, and other gardening tasks, just let us know what your interests are.
You can also sign up for classes and participate in a variety of workshops provided on a seasonal basis such as Homestead Wine Making, Herbal Workshops, Canning, and Composting classes.

Beyond Organic
We have gardened our homestead in Delaware over the last 40 years using both organic and biodynamic gardening methods, without any chemicals or commercial manure. Most importantly, we create our own biodynamic compost using our horses manure. In addition, we use seaweed, rock powders, do soil testing, and plant cover crops.
