Terminating some summer sown cover crop before it sets seed. Will leave this on the bed to break down, keeping the soil covered for the winter. In spring, we’ll rake it off or plant right into the debris.

Flash sale on basil!!! I know it’s hard to think about…. but you probably should start filing your freezer for winter. And pesto is one of our favorite things to make and freeze and enjoy all winter long!

So to honor that, we’re selling mega bunches of basil for only $6! All weekend long, swing by the farm stand and grab some (plus whatever goodies you need to enjoy the beautiful weekend ahead!!)

See you soon!

A friend who was up high in one of the farm trees, helping to trim them up, caught a great picture of the farm. In front of those tunnels, we’ve torn out all our summer crops and will be cover cropping the beds for the fall and early winter.

But first we raked up all the crop debris for a little in-field composting. The tarp will help cook the compost, as well as encourage any w**d seed to germinate. We’ll pull the tarp back soon to sow the cover crop.

P.S. look at those potatoes!!!! 😍🌈🥔

See you next week!

Sometimes farmers get to have hobby projects too! This squash tunnel has bird house gourds, luffa, watermelon, and pie pumpkins growing up/ down / around it. We hope to get some good fruit off it, but if not, we’re just happy to enjoy its charm.

Second year in a row that our garlic harvest started with removing a recently downed tree that landed in the field.

But even with that, we got everything pulled, tied, and hung up for curing. Over 2500 heads will be sorted into two groups- food and seed!

Our first workshop of the season is next week!! Come spend a magical evening on the farm and learn how to make whimsical flower crowns with us 💐Link in bio #flowers #flowercrown #detroitevents

And down the peas came! This year we opted to use the pea debris as mulch in the paths, which limits the amount of hauling we have to do, helps to suppress weeds, and serves as a little composting in place. Because we hand transplant into these beds, we leave the t-posts in ground year-round. This year, after the peas @dirtbaguette.0 is planting round two of flowers. #detroiturbanfarming #croprotation #endofaseason

Beaverland Farms

Beaverland Farms is a 2-acre homestead and working farm located in the Brightmoor, a northwest neighborhood in Detroit. We grow nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables raised in natural systems that value biological mechanisms and life processes over the use of chemical inputs like fertilizers and pesticides. We seek to regenerate the landscape in Brightmoor by emulating ecosystem functions with symbiotic farm enterprises which are economically and environmentally resilient, and which add stability and security to our neighborhood and large metropolitan community. The farm is a part of a network of growers and business in the city. We hope to leverage the resources of our farm to empower ourselves and others in developing and undertaking further regenerative enterprises in the region.

All decisions and modes of production at Beaverland Farms are weighed against our holistic management policy, which emphasizes:

REGENERATIVE ENTERPRISES

Through the farm enterprises we work to create beneficial environmental change that not only sustains but builds our local resource base. By designing systems and enterprises which facilitate life processes we enable perennial, evolving systems which improve production capacity over time.
