Regenerative Farming
Maple View Farm broke ground in the spring of 2017, re-purposing an old dairy farm (circa 1870) into a small scale vegetable and herb farm. Owner and Farmer, Kyle, brought with him his knowledge of growing up on a family farm in Ohio; combined with experience working on several successful farms in the Hudson Valley. Kyle started Maple View Farm with the goal to provide fresh produce to the local community in a sustainable manner.
We grow our produce following organic practices and promote a diverse, healthy, living soil. (Maple View Farm is not yet Certified Organic, but plan to be by summer of 2021.)These practices combined with a bit of hard work yield incredibly delicious and nutritious food which we enjoy as a family and share with our local community.
What does this mean?
We source our seed from regional suppliers; we use organic seed whenever possible; we work the soil by hand, never tilling; we use locally made compost to feed the soil which in turn feeds our vegetables; we ensure crops are continually rotated; and we implement an integrated approach to preventing pest and diseases among our crops.
