How We Practice Sustainable Farming at Richfield
At Richfield Farms, our mission goes beyond growing food—we’re growing a more sustainable future. Every planting decision we make considers the health of our soil, water, and surrounding ecosystems.
Here’s what sustainable farming looks like on our land:
Crop rotation: We change what we grow in each plot from season to season to prevent nutrient depletion and disrupt pest cycles.
Composting: We recycle plant waste into rich compost that feeds our soil and reduces our landfill contribution.
Integrated pest management: Instead of relying heavily on chemicals, we use beneficial insects, crop rotation, and trap plants to manage pests.
Water conservation: We monitor soil moisture and use efficient irrigation systems to reduce water waste.
Our commitment to sustainability isn’t just good for the planet—it ensures we can keep growing delicious, healthy food for generations to come.
