A “green” farm?
Top Nine Reasons His Glories Farm qualifies as “green”
- We gladly accept donations of used pots throughout the year
- Rice hulls are used in our potting soil (rice hulls serve the same purpose as vermiculite, but are environmentally friendly!)
- We accept donations of egg cartons to reuse
- Any produce that isn’t sold or used by us feeds our chickens
- Turnips growing in the garden over winter provide chickens with fresh food while creating a great cover crop
- Milk jugs, dairy containers and the like all have a second life as “pots”
- Plastic bags from Wal-Mart, etc. are the perfect way to deliver most garden produce
- Fresh flower bouquets are just as gorgeous in donated vases!
- Slates cut from plastic mini blinds make the best markers for our seedlings
