Organic & Sustainable Farming Benefits
The image of a traditional rural lifestyle, with cows grazing out at pasture, chickens pecking in the barnyard, and a lush mix of produce thriving in the fields, finds its fulfillment in the organic farm. Livestock are raised in healthy, airy conditions, free of antibiotics and growth hormones.
Organic farmers focus on feeding the soil, not the plants. Healthy soil rich in organic matter and microorganisms makes for vigorous plants that resist pests and disease. Healthy, living soil is vital to organic farming. The natural end result of this is that farmers strive to maintain ecological balance through their farming practices. Continual addition of compost, tilled-under cover crops, animal manures, and other naturally sourced nutrients enrich the soil in much the same way as happens in nature. This rich soil, in turn, yields flavorful produce higher in antioxidants and other nutrients than many conventional crops.
Organically-grown fields are also better equipped than conventional ones to fight off pests and disease. With efficient, intelligent management, organic farming offers similar yields to conventional. While conventional farms may have higher yields in optimum growing conditions, vigorous organic crops can even outyield conventional ones in a difficult growing year. Organic production does have higher labor costs, but this is generally offset with higher prices at the grocery store.
Organic farmers bring their considerable creativity to bear in selling their crops, as well. Many small farms operate roadside produce stands; others use community-supported agriculture (CSA) programs to sell their products. The CSA model, where consumers subscribe to a weekly, biweekly, or monthly "share" of whatever a farm is producing, is becoming increasingly popular. Harvest festivals and pick-your-own crops are also customer favorites.

Tourmaline Farms & Feed
1000 Watts Rd
Deary, ID 83823
(208) 877-1700
gofarmu@icloud.com
We produce salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, eggs and raw dairy products while focusing on maintaining the farm's habitat. Certified organic for the past 10 years, the farm has gone from a worn out, gullied weed patch to a beautiful multi-species habitat that is home to our farm animals and all the native "critters."
We are first and foremost farmers. We believe it is our mission to love our neighbors and be good stewards of the land. Our family farm now has three generations living on it. Tourmaline Farm is a diversified, grass-based, beyond organic, direct marketing farm.
For context, please understand that we don’t do anything conventionally. We haven’t bought a bag of chemical fertilizer (ever) and don't own a plow or disk or silo. Like Polyface Farm, we practice mob stocking herbivorous solar conversion lignified carbon sequestration fertilization with the cattle. Pastured broilers move every day to a fresh paddock salad bar.
