About Us
French Farms is a small farm located in the Redland, South Florida’s historic agricultural neighborhood. The farm is nestled in the Castellow Hammock, a 112 acre preserve and one of the last remaining parcels of native hammock in the Redlands. Throughout the South Florida growing season, you can find French Farms on Saturdays at the Legion Park Farmers Market.
Practices
Farmer Chris French and his team focus on regenerative farming practices and on the health of soil life, soil biodiversity, and soil building techniques like cover cropping, crop rotation and on site composting to grow nutrient dense vegetables for his community. While French Farms is not certified organic, it uses all OMRI listed and certified inputs, like germination mix, fertilizer and pesticides.
