Green Owl Farm is a sustainable, small-scale farm in Rhinebeck, NY, growing specialty long-season crops (saffron, turmeric, ginger, garlic, rainbow fingerling potatoes, luffa gourds, and bottle gourds). We direct sell and wholesale these crops and the products we make from them at the Rhinebeck Farmer's Market and throughout the Hudson Valley. We also grow over 40 types of vegetables, with many varieties, for our 20 week CSA...
After farming for five years with a tractor, we decided to forgo tilling and establish a permanent bed system. We work our beds with hand tools, with a focus on minimizing soil disruption and creating healthier nutrient dense plants...
Our commitment to the land drives these practices -- sowing, cultivating and harvesting with our feet on the ground and, also, improving our soil's vitality through tillage reduction, crop rotation, green manure cover cropping, compost and the use of only certified organic fertilizers. We never use synthetic amendments or GMOs.
