Fox Creek Farm CSA

Farming Practices

Fox Creek Farm does not use synthetics (pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, or fertilizers) in our farming operation. We adopt organic farming practices,  but choose not to apply for third-party organic certification.

We rotate our crops according to our crop rotation plan, use outstanding quality seeds and transplants, and we take great care of our soils.

We monitor our soil fertility closely with annual soil sampling, and maintain the quality of our soils through our extensive cover cropping program, the application of composted manure, and when needed the application of limestone and other minerals.

Since we are growing our CSA members’ food right here in the Hilltowns, there is ample opportunity to visit the farm, call us, and otherwise personally verify that we maintain our 'grown organically' pledge. Together we avoid the added fees and related administrative expenses that come with the maintenance of organic certification. At Fox Creek Farm be believe that knowing the people who grow your food is the best guarantee to know what ends up on your table. 

Buy Local, Eat Well, Be Healthy, Protect the Environment
