How we farm
No-Till System
NCOF’s no-till crop management conserves soil and requires less water while improving crop yield and nutrient density.
Certified Organic
We grow our vegetables, small fruits, and cut flowers according to strict organic standards.
Animal Care
Our humanely raised animals eat organic food and have daily access to fresh air, sunlight, and open pastures or yards.
