The Land
We are grateful to be growing food here on this good land, that has been farmed for many decades and the home of the Lenni Lenape before that.
The farm buildings and house date to the 1830's and this land has produced poultry, hay, cattle, vegetables, sheep and much more since then. It has also often been a beloved gathering place for friends and community over the years.
The Reason
We know we feel best eating fresh, delicious food grown with dedication. Being connected to the soil that produces our nourishment has changed our lives for the better and we think this rootedness is a universally good thing.
The Farm
Broad Wing Farm grows less than an acre of vegetables and herbs. Small is beautiful and this scale allows us to attend to details and quality. We grow cover crops to protect and nourish the soil and rotate crops to avoid depleting the soil and building up pest pressure. We use natural fertilizers and manage pests, weeds and disease without synthetic chemicals as we constantly work to balance minerals in our soil, build organic matter, and increase soil health.
