        Where Great Garlic Begins

        General Info
        PHILOSOPHY We believe in living closer to the land. We plan for a mix of native plantings for beauty and wildlife support alongside the cultivated production gardens. We continually improve our soil by the addition of organic materials and minimum use of tillage equipment. Our only use of chemicals is for the control of invasive plants that were brought on to the property by previous owners. We attended an invasive seminar offered by the Boone County extension office in October of 2006 this provided identification tools and proper chemical control. We advocate and practice sustainable gardening methods; however, we are not currently seeking organic certification. All weeding and mulching is done by hand in additioon to harvesting, processing and packaging. SUSTAINABILITY Everything taken off the land is put back by use of composting. Grass clippings are effective mulch and greatly reduce the need for weeding while providing soil stability through temperature and moisture moderation. All plant material benefits from the use of mulch while adding organic matter back into the soil. HABITAT GARDENS Wildlife habitat restoration of property begun spring 2003 Repopulating the land with Kentucky native plants to provide food and shelter for wildlife Allowing natives found naturally on the property to grow and expand their presence Provide a chemical free environment for wildlife Educate homeowners about the use of native plants for home scale gardening and habitat restoration
