We have grown a large garden every year using regenerative and permaculture principles. The method we are using decreased our water use in the garden to one-third of what it used to be. We also provide habitat and food for beneficial insects like bees, ladybugs, and praying mantis. Our family has enjoyed fresh chemical-free produce for many years, and we are expanding to be able to offer fresh in-season produce to the community this summer. My family’s favorite garden produce is our wide variety of heirloom tomatoes and cucumbers.
