About the farm
Cedar Crate Farm grows a wide variety of fruits and vegetables using holistic, sustainable practices. We take a lot of pride in bringing you fresh, healthy, and sustainable produce. We love sharing our love of high quality, tasty food with our community!
We use a variety of sustainable and regenerative practices so that we can leave the land in better shape than when we found it. We utilize cover crops so that our land is covered with living plant material for as much of the season as possible. Cover crops also provide valuable habitat for insects and pollinators. We don't use synthetic chemicals on our farm and we seek to improve our land each year.
We believe that food is medicine and that the better you eat, the healthier you will be. Whole, unprocessed foods are one of the best ways to eat well and stay healthy. We don't spray our produce with synthetic chemicals so you always know exactly what you're eating.
