The 377-acre Coverdale Farm Preserve is comprised of both natural and working lands. 200 acres of

Our farm operation uses regenerative agriculture methods which restore and replenish the natural resources we rely upon. Building soil above and below ground, maintaining year-round living root systems, maximizing on-farm biodiversity, integrating plant and animal systems, and eliminating synthetic chemicals are key to our practice. Discover how we carefully manage this land for biodiversity and water.
