Red Root Herb and Vegetable Farm

Website: www.redrootfarm.com

USDA Certified Organic

Located in scenic Banks, Alabama, Red Root Farm is both on the forefront of cutting edge organic farming techniques and a throwback to an earlier time of agricultural sustainability.

Established in 2000, Red Root Farm uses exclusively organic procedures to produce a diverse array of crops including corn, peas, tomatoes, melons, peppers, sugar cane, and assorted members of the Cruciferous family. Blackberries, plums, and pecans align the Red Root Landscape. Within the next few years we are hoping to branch out into the production of various fruits such as figs and scuppernongs. An emphasis on sustainability is the cornerstone of the philosophy of Red Root Farm. Well water is used for irrigation when needed. In keeping with the sustainability philosophy and the need for community and family farm, Red Root uses a great deal of hand labor, which also reduces the need for some machinery. Currently five acres are under production with the possibility of more to come.
