We make a real effort to be conscientious of how we run our farm. We’re using this data so you can see some of the realities of a functioning farm and so we can challenge ourselves to reflect month by month on how we could operate even better.

We send these numbers out each month in our Newsletter but had forgotten to put them up on our blog. Here they are:

  • Amount of Space Currently Planted: 6865 square feet

  • Pounds of Harvest: 113.75 lbs

  • Hours Worked by Volunteers: 27 hrs.

  • Number of Transplants Planted: 1594

  • Compost Made on the Farm: 1.25 Cubic Yard

  • City Water Used: 710 Gallons

  • Biomass (organic waste) Collected (kept out of our landfills)

    • Coffee grounds: 509 lbs

    • Other Biomass:  235 lbs(spent grains/vegetable scraps) 

  • Gasoline Used by the farm

    • On the Farm: 0 Gallons

    • Transportation: 17.59 Gallons
