Compostella Farm

Greens successions coming along! We’ve been battling the realities of farming on land that just two months ago was pasture. Loads of grass root balls, nutsedge, and other unidentified roots as long as I am tall. This has added lots of weeding on our already full plate and caused us to adjust our practices. We’ll be spending much longer on bed prep in hopes of reducing hours weeding. We were spoiled after three years of reducing the seed bank at our old place! It’s good to know this challenge is temporary. 🤞

#thattimewhen you moved your farm (and home) while keeping the business going and the closest thing to a day off was a nap with a corgi in a hammock.

The spring equinox brought us many gifts including a load of compost, pallets of soil amendments, and a temporary irrigation setup from our pond. Excited to try out a new compost supplier @compostingnetwork who takes food waste from New Orleans restaurants to make beautiful finished compost. As most of our sales are to NOLA restaurants, we love the feeling of closing the loop.
