We use traditional European methods of biointensive, raised bed production while maximizing soil and plant health for nutrition and sustainability. No synthetic/chemical fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide, or fungicide is ever used in any part of the process of growing your food. Everything we sell is grown by us, and we farm full-time, supporting ourselves and our four children through our farm business.
Growing practices at Broadfork utilize only ecological methods: compost, cover crops, organic fertilizer, and minerals are used to feed the soil that feeds our plants. Raised beds are used to prevent soil-compaction, allowing for happier plant roots. We use organic potting soil and fertilizer, as well as amendments like fish emulsion and sea minerals. No chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or pesticides are ever used on your food and we are Certified Naturally Grown (which follows the same national standards used for Organic Certification). We are also proud members of the Virginia Association for Biological Farming and Slow Food RVA. Janet and Dan both hold Bachelor’s Degrees in Biology from Davidson and Lafayette Colleges, respectively. Janet holds a Master’s Degree in Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. We both thrive on putting our biology backgrounds to use in a farm setting and share a passion for farm education. read more
Farmer John Peterson got his start on the family farm in the 1950’s at age nine when he began milking and feeding the cows before and after school. In 1990, Farmer John transitioned the farm to organic vegetables and called it Angelic Organics. He wanted a natural system by which to farm, a system in which results were derived from the integrity of the soil—not from crop chemicals and petroleum based fertilizers.
As Angelic Organics got its footing in the early 90’s, Farmer John turned to the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model for a truly comprehensive approach to farming—to reunite people with the source of their food, to share the magnificent drama of farming, to give children the opportunity to see their vegetables grow. This completes the farming picture beautifully, providing deep satisfaction to shareholders and farmers alike.
You can learn much more about Angelic Organics and Farmer John by watching the feature documentary film The Real Dirt on Farmer John seen by millions throughout the world and winner of 31 film festival awards. read more

The Harvie Process
What is Harvie?
Harvie brings together the highest-quality, most experienced local farmers who serve consumers in their local area through a customizable farm share program.
Join your local farm's Harvie program to have a weekly or bi-weekly share of in-season, just picked fresh produce delivered to your workplace, community drop-off point, or even to your door (depending on each farmers distribution choices). Each week's box will be customized to your product preferences (don't like beets? you will never get them in your box) and you will have a chance each week to make changes to your box and order extras if you like. In addition, Harvie provides cooking suggestions based on your box so you can quickly get your fresh produce on your dinner table!
Customize Your Share
After you sign up with your local farmer, Harvie will provide you with a list of all the crops that your farmer grows and you will rate each product from 0 ("I never want it in my share") to 5 ("I love it!").
Based on your preferences and the farm's harvest, Harvie chooses what will go in your share and sends a notification to you about your box. You will have a window of time to make changes to your box or order extras if you like.
