Growing Practices -
Wiseacre Farm is not certified organic, for reasons related to expense and paperwork.  However...

We do not use synthetic fertilizers.  We DO use animal manures and cover crops to build soil fertility. We do not use herbicides.  We DO use crop rotation, mulch, hoes, and tractor cultivation to control weeds. The ONLY pesticides we use are those in which the active ingredients have been approved by organic certifiers for use by organic growers. If you have questions, please ask!
