Farmers Market COVID-19 Protocol

As a regenerative farm that’s in the service of wellness and providing healthy food to our customers and community, we are determined, now more than ever, to do everything we can to continue forward with that purpose. At this time we’re still selling our produce, meat and eggs at our regularly scheduled farmers markets, and have implemented the following additional safety measures to help protect the farm, our team, and our customers in light of the current COVID-19 situation:

Farmers Market guidelines:

- We’ve implemented a full-service style booth with all produce located behind our staff to prevent customer handling - All employees follow strict sanitation guidelines, washing hands regularly, wearing gloves, and changing them frequently - All markets have handwashing stations set up - We’re no longer taking signatures for credit card transactions and only one team member at the market handles cash - We sanitize all of our tools and equipment regularly

ON-FARM SATURDAY FARMSTAND

The On-Farm Saturday Farmstand is OPEN for the season from 10:00am – 3:00pm, every Saturday!

ONLINE SHOP

From our Olive Oil to our Emma Doll, everything in our shop is created, produced, and packaged with care; and each order is hand-packed and shipped straight from the farm in 100% recycled materials.

WE'RE CERTIFIED

It wasn’t an easy task, but well worth the time. It took us nearly 4 years to achieve Organic and Biodynamic certification for the orchards, gardens, and pastures. We also became one of the first pilot farms in the new Regenerative Organic Certification*. Each day we work to go beyond our certification requirements to better stabilize our biologically diverse system. Learn more about our farm practices by exploring our farm map or join us for a tour.

* All of our fruits, vegetables and olive & avocado oils are Organic and Biodynamic Certified.
Our eggs, lamb and beef are Certified Humane.

Silica sprays are a sign that something delicious $Silica sprays are a sign that something delicious is around the corner… Gordon apples just received their final round & will be hitting the farmers markets next week! 🍎 Biodynamic “preps” are energizing additions to the land that promote growth & increase the entire farm system’s resilience. Preps are put into two categories: field preps (BD 500 & 501) & compost preps (BD 502-507). We make our silica prep (BD 501) on the farm at the beginning of spring by manually grinding up clear quartz, amethyst quartz & rose quartz using a mortar and pestle, and processing it through a sieve shaker. The fine silica powder is packed in cow horns, capped with soil, and buried at Alan York Lookout (one of the highest points on the farm), where it’s closest to the sun all summer long, absorbing energy and transforming underground from a simple mineral powder into a powerful biodynamic prep. Unearthed at the end of summer in conjunction with the biodynamic calendar, the silica is removed from its cow horn vessel and stored in our Fertility Center near a window until it’s time to be made into a foliar spray, and applied to our fruiting trees in a homeopathic dose—less than a teaspoon of silica is applied per acre! Horn silica stimulates photosynthesis, regulates leaf growth, and enhances the fruit ripening process—supporting each fruit in reaching its full potential. Sprayed directly 2-3 times per season during the fruit set, maturation, and ripening process, the finely ground crystals that have been alchemized underground promote harmonious growth, helping to homogenize the shape, form, and structure of fruit. How can such a little amount of fine powder make such a big impact? The tiny crystalline structures in the silica solution refract light in a brilliant spectrum, boosting photosynthesis, enhancing sugar production, and increasing resilience to pests and disease. Increases in photosynthetic activity = increases in carbon sequestration, as the trees pull more carbon from the atmosphere to produce nutrient-dense fruit. Lots more to share about biodynamics & how we care for our fruit trees.. drop any questions you may have below! 🌳🍎$
