Welcome to Walnut Ledge Farm!
Walnut
Ledge Farm is a CHEMICAL-FREE 14-acre family farm located in scenic South
Glastonbury, CT. Owned and operated by Michael and Joanna Kamis, along
with their two daughters. Though we have been operating the farm for the last 9 years, our farm
has been around for generations! Some of our blueberry bushes have been
calculated to be close to 100 years old! We are the 1st farm in the
State of Connecticut to be preserved by the Connecticut Farmland Trust.
We are also proud to be registered with the Connecticut Botanical
Society with having some of the largest walnut and chestnut trees in the
state.
With the largest crop being our blueberries, we also have expanded our Garlic fields to over 15,000 bulbs a year. Garlic also provides an early crop of scapes. Chestnuts are the 3rd largest crop we raise.
We also have 3 hives of Honey Bees onto the farm with hopes of producing a strong line of Honey and Beeswax products.
Through the years we have been striving to bring you quality products with minimal to zero use of any pesticides, fungicides or herbicides. As of now we have accomplished just that for the past 7 years. We are working really hard to nurture our soils and plants to create the most nutrition they can possibly have. We have had help with some fertilizers made up of sea kelp and compost teas. We are happy to find success in this program. While we do things different, we also get different outcomes whether a slower growing season, or battling with our weeds. We appreciate your patience and support as we go on this adventure to healthy living for you and for our family.
We look forward to seeing you!
