LAKEVILLE FARM

To grow top-quality organic vegetables requires top-quality soil. While we are applying to be certified, we continue to grow according to the organic principles set by Northeast Organic Farmers Association... We are a small organic farm that does not use tractors. We farm by hand with a passion for top-quality produce which we feel cannot be achieved by farming on large acreage or by using tractors. The intimacy with our crops is lost riding up in a tractor all day. Our focus is doing it better, not necessarily bigger. While we do use modern tools and methods which allows us to remain competitive, all planting, weeding, cultivation, and harvesting is done by hand. This allows us to work with mother nature rather than overwhelming her with large tractors and chemicals.
