Sustainibility
Our farm is actively involved with using sustainable agriculture practices that are designed to meet the needs of the present generation without jeopardizing the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. These farming practices involve the use of various techniques that are aimed at protecting the environment, public health, human communities, and animal welfare. By adopting sustainable agriculture practices, we can improve soil health, reduce pollution, and increase biodiversity, while also producing high-quality food that is safe and healthy for consumers. We have been farming in south Georgia for over 100 years, and we are trying to make sure we continue to take into account the long-term impact of our farming practices on our environment and society.
