For James Nisly, growing organic vegetables is about fulfilling a vision of producing healthy food for a healthy community and building well balanced soil for sustainable food production.

Inspired by a love for his community, the farm focuses on better flavor and nutrition and on growing “produce with integrity,” a model James lives by every day as he cares for the plants and the soil at Organic Greens.
