Industrial greenhouse principles meet springtime vitality
The Farm focuses on sustainable practices and native plant species to nurture resilient landscapes. Our guides illuminate native applications, water-smart techniques, and energy-conscious greenhouse management for a greener future.
Soil and composting basics
Build fertile, sustainable beds for native plants using recycled organic matter. Emphasize native soil microbes and minimal disturbance.
- Layer composting to improve biodiversity
- Use mulch to conserve moisture
- Avoid synthetic shortcuts; prefer compost teas
Water-smart irrigation
Design for efficient use with drip lines and rain capture. Native species reduce irrigation needs when well matched to climate.
- Install soaker hoses under mulch
- Schedule deep, infrequent watering
- Capture rain runoff for beds
Native plant selection
Choose species adapted to your region to support local pollinators and biodiversity.
- Prioritize regionally native perennials
- Group by sun exposure and moisture
- Provide seasonal bloom variety
Seasonal guide for beginners
Plan a year-round green space with phased installations and staggered bloom windows.
- Spring: establish nursery stock
- Summer: emphasize drought-tolerant natives
- Fall: plant for overwintering success
Guide: Native Garden Planning
Step-by-step plan to map sun, soil, and water to native species for a resilient landscape.
- Site assessment
- Plant layering and microhabitats
- Maintenance calendar
Quick-start Checklist
- Inventory existing natives
- Test soil pH and texture
- Set irrigation zones
- Schedule seasonal mulching
