Gardening Methods
Plants need living soil to be healthy and full of vitamins and minerals.
The 3 principles to achieve living soil is to disturb the soil as little as possible, plant the soil as much as possible and keep the soil covered as much as possible. I do not use any pesticides as they kill both bad bugs and good bugs. I use physical barriers to keep the cut worms away from my springtime transplants. I encourage good bugs by keeping native plants and planting diverse flowers.
To disturb the soil as little as possible, I do not till. I use a broadfork when I notice any compaction. When the gardens cannot be planted with veggies and cover crops, I use mulched leaves to cover the beds and feed the microorganisms. I also use Korean Natural Farming techniques, like fermented plant juice and leaf mold biology, to aid in fertility management.
About the Gardeners
Christel Lewis
I first learned to garden when helping my Mom. After I moved out and got my own home, I was excited to plant veggie and flower gardens and loved being able to grow my own food! It felt very satisfying to eat what I grew myself.
After working as a systems engineer in the corporate world for 20 years, my husband and I moved to the country, where I wanted to change careers by putting my gardening love to work. After my first harvest of In the Woods Market Garden, I wanted to make my healthy, nutritious produce available to my community.
Boots
Boots is Christel’s assistant and constant companion when we are outside working in the gardens. She helpfully chases off deer from the gardens and alerts us of any bears in the area.
Our Shared Commitments
I promise to do my best to provide you with fresh, delicious produce each week.
While I do everything in my power to deliver a consistent bounty, unexpected challenges may occur, such as weather or pests, and the quantity of produce may fluctuate from week to week. In the unlikely event of a crop failure, produce may not be available for some weeks.
Rest assured, I am fully committed to our shared success. Even during recent droughts, the pond irrigation system has not dried up, and we have been able to water the entire growing season!
Pick up your produce right from where it was grown and harvested!
You are about to join a community that is committed to supporting small farms and local businesses!
It is the member’s responsibility to pick up the freshly harvested shares each Wednesday during the season, either from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in Superior or from 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the market garden in Foxboro.
If you are unable to pick up on the scheduled day/time, please arrange for a friend or family member to do so. We can also donate your shares to a local food bank of your choice. Please text or email before Wednesday with your pick-up arrangements.
Although most of the food is prewashed with a garden hose, please wash all of your produce before eating for your added protection.
