Stone Barns

This year I have become obsessed with this restaurant/farm CoOp in NY called Stone Barns. Mostly, its because they seem to have wonderful farming practices that use crop rotation and mixed crop planting systems to fertilize the ground and prevent unwanted plants from growing. This is a refreshing change from pesticides and fertilizers! Recently, they have used hungry animals as a way to fertilize grassland while also chomping on invasive species.

Im not sure if there is anyway to implement this type of method throughout the ADKs but it might be useful to farmers, like those at Asgaard.
