Farmland Trade:
We feel so blessed to have trade partnerships with both Rancho Cordova homeowners, and
The Cordova Baptist Church & Preschool.
Our farm-ministry thrives on community & partnership. We trade landowners weekly produce for urban spaces to grow.
Since the Spring of 2018,
We’ve had the great thrill of managing the historic Hachiya Persimmon Orchard behind the play yard at The Cordova Baptist Church & Preschool. We grow specialty fruits and vegetables year-round underneath the orchard canopy. We also teach weekly Sunday school lessons, and host fun farm days with the onsite Preschoolers.
Farm Values:
In all of our market gardens, we practice Permaculture, a regenerative agricultural philosophy that mimics nature & feeds the soil. We produce many plant nutrients onsite from crop trimmings, worm castings, and our own rabbit manure! 🐰❤️🌱
Our primary focus is soil building, therefore ZERO pesticides or chemical fertilizers are used. Methods for protecting our plants include insect netting and creating habitat for beneficial insects.
Quail of a tale! Winter 2021 we built an incubator and ordered Jumbo Coturnix Quail hatching eggs from a reputable quail farm. From those eggs that hatched we’ve grown our own quail business! We raise a mix of colors of Jumbo Coturnix Quail, contact us for all things Quail.
