The highest monetary value that the Teal Farm perennial food system promises is producing plant stock from the locally adapted varieties thriving on the site. An on-site nursery can grow orchard trees, shrubs, and perennials for the ongoing expansion and maintenance of Teal Farm, as well as for starting other regenerative projects in the region. By raising the Farm’s own stock, we are assured of the ongoing resilience of the plants to the changing northern climate. This type of home horticulture is key to developing a regional, sustainable agriculture and will play an important roll in establishing long-term food security.
