How We Started Organic Farming

In countries where food security is a systemic problem, the choice of eating organically grown foods versus those produced by traditional methods is rarely available. In our efforts to increase food security in the community, we made the decision to continue to use the sustainable farming techniques employed by my father. This includes recycling and re-purposing everything that is used on the farm. For instance, the corn husks, stalks, and other by-products of the harvests were given to a local cattleman to feed his livestock. All harvests, preparation, and packaging of crops for sale are completed manually. We rely on renewable resources and optimize biological productivity through crop rotations.
