A small family farm in rural Northwest Iowa pursuing organic methods in raising and marketing Certified Naturally Grown vegetables. Our goal is to be Godly stewards as we work with the land, water, plants, and animals the Lord has given us. Also found at The Cornucopia are better than free-range broilers and purebred Berkshire pigs.

Leaf Lettuce in the "center garden."
Onions in "pasture garden". The Sweet Peppers are in the five mulch rows to the right of the onions. We planted the pepper plants in the plastic mulch and then put bean straw mulch down between the plastic mulch rows after the picture was taken. By now you have noticed the drip tape for irrigating. We have used over 10,000 feet of 5/8's inch drip line so far this year and have more on order. We have watered more this last two weeks then most of last growing season. A one or two inch rain would actually be very good. In places where we haven't watered seed hasn't germinated because its too dry.
Garlic, stiff neck Garlic. Some have been harvested as garlic greens.
