Nature Attunement Farms
At Nature Attunement Farms we value sustainable agriculture and sustainable practices.
​
-
PLA or RPET plastic for our products. PLA plastic is made from plants and is biodegradable. RPET is plastic that has been recycled into a new product.
-
We have also started using reusable containers (like the old fashioned milk man- collecting old containers to wash and reuse for the next delivery). We value reducing waste!
-
We value soil health! At Nature Attunement Farms we have started doing vermicomposting to recycle all of our soil and cut greens.
-
Our products are never sprayed with pesticides or herbicides and never any application of synthetic fertilizers.
-
We do use EM - effective microrganisms, effectively a pro-biotic for the soil. We also use an extremely diluted food grade hydrogen peroxide and a vinegar mix to limit mold during seed incubation.
-
Organic seed is bought when possible. And if not possible, seeds are always non-GMO and heirloom varieties.
-
We grow year-round in a commercial building, this limits our requirement for any kind of pest control since it's in a contained environment and we obtain fresh soil every 10 days. Pests usually develop in soil after it's been used a few months.
-
We are a small business! Currently servicing 20 local restaurants and grocery stores in St. George, La Verkin, Springdale, Virgin, Colorado City, Kanab and Mt. Carmel.
-
Sustainability is very important to us, we are working towards using solar energy for plant production.
