We are honored and humbled by the interest in our Regenerative Land Stewardship tour this summer! More than 130 of our neighbors joined us on four tours, with each tour's tickets selling out in five minutes or less.

We look forward to future tours and workshops in the months and years to come!

It may feel like fall, but the last of our summer tours is September 26th -- tickets will be released at noon on Friday, September 12th

Meet our honeybees - Long before you reach our apiary, you can hear the buzzing. Bees have long been part of the farm’s production, and our six hives produce honey and support pollination. oceanhourfarm.org/the-farm/#be...

We often say our compost center is the heart of the farm. Why?
Our compost piles enable us to cycle our waste streams, regenerate our soil, and grow healthier food. Better yet, we don’t send organic waste to landfills. Explore our compost center: oceanhourfarm.org/the-farm/#co...

Explore the Farm - Our largest land unit isn't for growing food, we're building soil. Our flock of sheep, cows and chickens, with our guardian llama, manages the perennial pasture as they fertilize, eat pests, and disturb plant roots. oceanhourfarm.org/the-farm/#pe...

Check out our freshwater wetlands, a distinct ecosystem providing essential habitat for wildlife. Wetlands occupy space where we cannot grow food or graze animals, but they provide critical ecosystem services, including reducing flood and storm damage. oceanhourfarm.org/the-farm/#we...

We invite you to #ExploretheFarm! With our interactive map, friends near and far can learn about the farm at their own pace. Watch our Food Forest come to life and then learn more about why we built it: oceanhourfarm.org/the-farm/#fo...

The quote we live by -- what's yours?

Regenerative land management is at the heart of Ocean Hour Farm. Our land management plan integrates plant, animal, and human systems to sequester carbon, manage stormwater runoff, promote healthy soils, and enhance biodiversity.

A Living System—We provide a living example of sustainable agriculture and land stewardship—an integrated system where plants, animals, and people sequester carbon, clean stormwater, build soil and produce food and fiber for the community.
