About Us
We Grow LLC is a family-owned farm in northern Taylor County providing a wide-array of vegetables and pasture-raised hogs. We are extremely passionate about good tasting, healthy food and leaving our land better than we found it. We choose to use organic certified, non-GMO seeds and soil inputs. Our belief is that food grown without pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals should be available locally and within the financial means of those who live in our area.
Practices
What is different about We Grow?
1. The techniques used to produce your food allow us to not rely on chemicals. We call this sustainable agriculture.
2. Carefully planned crop rotation reduces disease and pest infestations. It also prevents soil nutrient depletion.
3. Annual cover crops are planted over areas not in vegetable production. This gives the soil a rest period, prevents erosion and improves fertility when they are worked into the soil.
4. We choose to use only organic certified, non-GMO seeds and also utilize open-pollination to save seeds from select varieties year after year. This not only saves money, but also creates a genetically superior variety specifically for our weather, our soil, our gardening practices and harvest techniques.
5. Animal manures produced on our farm are composted and distributed in correlation with our planting schedule to maximize soil fertility.
