Black Dirt Farm is a diversified family farm. Our core enterprises follow food scraps through their cycle in order to leverage each stage of the process to reduct input costs (ecologically and economically) and maximize how we realize value from each within our system. We collect food scraps from businesses, institutions and residents throughout the region, forage laying hens (which produce eggs) on a feed blend made with these food scraps, make compost with what is not eaten and make worm castings from a portion of the compost.
