Five Acre Community Farm. The two Oak Trees in the middle of the field.
As you probably know we run Five Acre as a fully certified organic farm because the land belongs to Garden organic and has been certified for many years. What organic certification means and what you can and can’t do has been a learning curve for those of us who aren’t experienced organic growers but luckily we have several on the team who are experienced at this. Today I want to tell you about how we incorporate and consider wild life into our system, which is one aspect of being organic. As you will have noticed if you have come on the field we have mature hedgerow all round the field and two big oak trees in the middle.
These along with the wild flowers and grasses we allow to grow in various places help encourage beneficial insects, small animals and birds many of which help keep pests under control, which is important as we aren’t allowed to things like slug pellets or sprays most of the time.
