The Sugartown Story

Our Small, Diversified, Family Farm and Nursery

We have been building our farm and nursery over the last several years and have now taken it to the next level. At Sugartown, we are demonstrating the importance and validity of nursery production as part of a small-scale diversified family farm. We are also demonstrating the effectiveness and importance of using Low Input Sustainable Agriculture practices (LISA). This allows us the opportunity of providing farm tours, workshops, and field days to demonstrate our practices to the community and region. Although our county has a tremendous nursery industry, it is mostly large-scale and commercial/conventional operations. What we are doing and demonstrating is something entirely different…a different product, produced a different way, for a different customer. We are just adding to the diversity of nursery and farm operations in our area, and providing examples of many different ways that our friends, neighbors, and customers can become more productive, self-sufficient, and healthy.
