Spray Applications on Our Current Crop
|
As of May 29th, 2008
Everything that we use is approved for organic agriculture by the Organic Materials Review Institute(OMRI). This year we have been growing in our own hand blended, compost based medium that will provide enough fertility to your plant for the full growing season. You will not just be placing a plant in your garden but an entire ecosystem. Each pot is full of beneficial microbial life along with the perfect amount of rock powders to provide your plant with all of the nourishment it will need on a time released basis throughout the growing season resulting in a naturally resilient plant.

We pride ourselves in our full disclosure of our growing practices. We want our customers to be well informed as to what they plant in their gardens and what type of business they are supporting with their hard earned money. Although we are not yet certified organic we practice all of the standards set forth by the National Organic Program. We never use pesticides based on a spray schedule and use them only when we feel it is absolutely necessary. We monitor the pest population in our greenhouse and field plantings very closely and only when the pest population reaches a critical threshold do we spray. This season we will focus even more than ever before on the use of beneficial insects. If you ever have any questions about why we use a particular product please call or email us.
