Sustainability

Some people talk sustainable but we live it! Forty years of farming has taught us how to nurture our land and environment. We have been using integrated pest management since the 70’s. This has allowed us to utilize beneficial insects to control pests that would damage our crop.

Achieving a balance with nature has reduced our chemical and carbon footprint dramatically. Monitoring soil and leaf nutrient levels has also reduced the amount of soil amendments needed to keep plant health at optimum levels. We can monitor hourly our soil moisture levels – this has vastly reduced our water usage, help retain soil nutrients, increased root development, and increased the overall quality of our fruit. Planting cover crops has reduced tillage, which in turn has increased soil microorganisms and lead to a more balanced and healthy soil.

The new construction for our tasting room and cottages are very energy efficient:

  • 36 solar panels supplement energy consumption

  • There are four charging stations for electric cars provided free of charge

  • All water heaters are propane for showers and kitchen

  • All lighting is low wattage LED

  • Roof is R40

  • All glass is low E with solar cooled coating

  • Building positioned with southern exposure for efficiency in summer and winter
