About Conservation
Stewardship of our small corner of the world is something we take very seriously. Our acre of land was a monoculture for decades. Yet despite this, with a bordering marsh and forest, we still have a rich diversity of wildlife. We are regularly visited by Sandhill cranes, hummingbirds, beavers, deer, tree frogs, and an unidentified mustelid among many others. We do not take it for granted, and if anything, hope to encourage it.
Our annual flower crops benefit our pollinators, amphibians, and birds greatly. However, we are taking a more active approach to increasing our farm biomass. This includes creating pockets of native plantings around the farm, creating varying habitats for overwintering, and investing in native perennials that help feed our winter wildlife.
