Hi, I’m Amanda Dumont.
Community is very important to us. We farm because of people, people like you.
Food can bring us together. We see good quality organically-grown vegetables as not just for an elite economic or social group, but as a basic human right. On our family farm we also strive to be on this land in a way that respects the peoples that came before us and the creatures that inhabit it along side us.
I (Amanda) entered the world of farming in 2008 after studying and working in the world of classical singing and opera. I was ready for a change, a change that brought authentic connections with people that helped foster a healthy lifestyle.
Responsible growing practices:
My husband Tyler and I farm together, only growing food that we would feed our own family. We grow everything organically using no synthetic fertilizers or sprays. We feed our soil and start all of our own seedlings using only high quality organic compost and potting mix from Vermont Compost. We feed our fields using natural materials, tailoring our inputs to each crop’s needs using specific mineral amendments, alfalfa meal, kelp meal, chicken manure, and fish/seaweed fertilizer. We use no herbicides or insecticides and employ the use of tapping, landscape fabric, and floating row cover to suppress weed and insect pressure.
In 2022 Tyler and I and our two children started this journey to embark on finally having our own farm. Help us continue the tradition of working on this beautiful land on the historic 1850 Ida A. and Fred Weston Farm in Wilton, New Hampshire. Join us this season to enjoy good food grown by people who care about you and your experience at our farm!
