Meet Bring Forth Urban Farm!

This urban farm exists to bring the most nutritious produce to ourselves, our families, our neighbors and friends, and to a few choice restaurants who appreciate nutritional excellence grown locally. We use no pesticides, no chemical fertilizers, no GMO.

Our weekly “Mighty Greens” delivery service is perfect for ensuring that you get the produce you need to stay healthy and feel great. Put your order together on our site and arrange for subscription deliveries so that you’ll reliably receive our products every week without even having to leave your home.

We chose the name “Bring Forth” because the phrase suggests exactly what our mission is, in the words of Noah Webster in his American Dictionary of the English Language of 1828, “ To bring forth is to produce, as young or fruit; also, to bring to light; that is, to make manifest, to disclose.” This, to me, describes a teaching farmer, who teaches his customers and fellow growers a better way to live and eat.

We welcome you to join this hard working effort to “make things right” by the purchase of what we produce. We believe that the food we grow is of superior nutritional value. We cannot afford to register as “Organic” but our practices are well beyond what is required to be organic. All natural inputs, organic non-GMO seed, no chemicals, man-made fertilizers, and minimal tillage in the effort to make our food our medicine.

Bring Forth Urban Farm produces microgreens, salad greens, and more. The following is a brief list of our current offerings:

Microgreens: Broccoli, Kale, Red Cabbage, Red Garnet Amaranth, Sweet Rainbow Mix, Spicy Rainbow Mix, Spicy Brassica, Sunflower Shoots, and others by special order
Salad Greens: Gourmet Lettuce Mix, Gourmet Greens Mix, and Gourmet Sandwich Lettuce.
Various other vegetables in season
