My Neighbor’s Garden

My Neighbor’s Garden is home to a small yet diversified fruit and vegetable farm operation. They grow crops across two farm sites and employ regenerative agroforestry techniques to grow vegetables between rows of fruit trees. They sell directly via their website and personally carry out distribution and delivery for themselves and seven other farms.

My Neighbor’s Garden will purchase much-needed tools for their farm operations, such as a traditional irrigation system and an organic fertigation system, which will both water and feed their crops. They’ll also buy a walk-behind BCS Tractor as well as power and hand tools for ground preparation, composting, and harvesting. Market operations will be upgraded with new plastic storage totes, scales, tables, and tents for market days. These new tools and materials will enable them to immediately expand and market their vegetable production.
