Quality of land
The land is generally a west facing slope with ledge below the topsoil in the upper parts and a permeable clay layer farther down. Soil tilth is beautiful. Springs across the property have generally kept the soils moist with no irrigation needed. All water is moving with five streams on the property which create natural buffers / fencerows. Large pasture areas have been kept mowed but not used. Several acres are fertile from vegetable and poultry production. There are very few rocks in the soil. All crops grown on the land have outstanding flavor.
The farm has been organic since 2001. Small amounts of a wide variety of fruit crops have been planted.
