Solar Powered Winter Growing! And Merry Christmas!
Earlier this fall we installed two new winter grow tunnels. It was an investment, but a worthwhile one! You can see in the picture all the kale, salad mix, lettuce heads, beets, turnips, radishes, arugula, bok choy, and more all in this one 14'x40' tunnel. If it were not for these tunnels we would1 read more »

Farming as a Family!
When I first felt led to farm over a decade ago, one of my motivations was to be able to work with and invest in my family. Over the years this has been one of the biggest blessings of doing what we do. In fact, I don't even think we fully appreciate how much time we enjoy together. Having your own1 read more »
Bringing the Land Back to Life
The predominant approach to most agriculture today is one of death. Most of what farmers apply to the land, herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, etc. even if they are organic, is intended to kill life. It is a tempting approach to take, especially when different life forms are threatening the crops1 read more »
Can You Farm without Chemicals?
I know that many of you care about the food you get from our farm because you desire food that is not only safe, but healthy! It is a quite the journey learning how to grow food using something different than the conventional chemical approach. It is not that it isn't possible, but the information1 read more »
Planting LOTS of Seeds!
With our new grow tunnels we have the potential to produce a lot more this winter, but we have a short window to get everything started and planted before cold weather sets in. I can't believe it was in the 90's just a week and a half ago! So we have been busy getting beds prepped and planted. I ha1 read more »
About the farm
Rora Valley Farms is located in beautiful rural Coosa County, Alabama and is owned and operated by the Sanders Family and was established in 2009. Currently my wife Dorothy and I (Noah) oversee the vegetable and bakery operations while my cousin Luke Sanders and his wife Kristin oversee the meat and egg production. Our kids help out as well! Here at Rora Valley Farms we strive to produce real food. Many industrial foods today put on a good show, but fail to provide our bodies with the nutrients we need to function properly. When God designed our bodies, He also designed amazing foods to fuel them. But most industrial foods have strayed from that original design, and we have reaped the consequences. Through building healthy, living soil and utilizing natural systems of production and management we strive to harvest food that feeds our bodies, as well as our taste buds.
