According to Andy, “My farm has been managed organically since I began farming in 2002. It has been certified organic since 2005. In 2011, in addition to our organic certification we became GAP certified by the USDA for food safety. We use a mix of cover crops, compost and fertilizer to maintain soil fertility. Compost, peat, and mulches are used to help maintain tilth and soil texture. We have our own bees to help with pollination.”
