ABOUT UPPER MEADOWS FARM
Begun in 1987, Upper Meadows Farm has been devoted to sustainable holistic
agriculture. Joining the Certified
Organic community in 1991, we have maintained
certification ever since. From our beginning on 4 1/2 acres we have
evolved to our current size of 153 acres, all certified organic. We
have expanded our vegetable production from the traditional "kitchen
garden," which remains as one of our fields, to over 12 acres today,
that serve our CSA membership producing over 200 varieties of vegetables,
herbs and fruit. We are gradually expanding our Apple and Pear orchard.
We have devoted an additional 1/2 acre to perennial flower production.
We make hay when the sun shines and rotate our grain crops, which have
been barley, oats, wheat, rye, spelt, flax, buckwheat, and corn. All
our livestock are pasture based. We are always working to improve and
expand our pasture which we consider the foundation of our agricultural
health.
