In cooperation with nature, our family has been dairy farming here since 1922. In the early 1990's we discovered how the land could use the natural processes of composting to convert organic matter and dairy cow manure into the better earth for which this valley is known.We used the odorless natural compost on our fields and were amazed at how productive the soil became. Our yields were better in all weather conditions. It was not long after that landscapers, serious gardeners, and garden shops began coming to our farm to buy our organic compost by the truckload.We first started making our organic compost available to the public in bags in 2003.

The process of composting is simple and practiced by individuals in their homes, farmers on their land, and industrially by cities and factories. Compost is rich in nutrients and improves any type of soil. It is used in gardens, landscaping, horticulture, and agriculture. The compost itself is beneficial for the land in many ways, including as a soil conditioner, a fertilizer, addition of vital humus, and as a natural pesticide for soil.
