David, came to Georgia from Virginia.
We created Little Rose Organics in 2015 when we got a NRCS grant
for our High Tunnel Hoop House.
We are thrilled to be on-going farm partners with
University of Georgia's Capstone Program
for which we have many applications for sustainable improvements to our farm.
We have been teaching farming and nature programs to local children

From our first tiny vegetable garden in 1993 we have grown into
a small working farm selling fresh vegetables to local restaurants and friends.

which can go from tower to bag in moments with no washing necessary.
Growing lettuce in Georgia was previously a 5-month window of production due to

keeping insects under control.

Nature Adventures moments!
