The FarmNubanusit Farm will be a small biodynamic farm offering organic produce, dairy products, meat and eggs for the neighbors and possibly others. Neighbors may participate in the Farm depending on their individual desires, though participation is not required. Interested neighbors may work with the farm manager to create a farm plan that is sustainable for the land, the animals, the farmers and the neighborhood. The Farm will include a small dairy, an apiary, chickens for eggs and meat, orchards, berry patches, vegetable and herb gardens. Horses for pleasure and/or work are likely to join the farm, as are a variety of other farm animals. Pastures and hayfields round the landscape. Shelley Goguen Hulbert is an experienced dairy farmer with a certificate in biodynamic farming. She is the managing farmer at this time. We also hope to attract an experienced biodynamic vegetable farmer to live and work here. Future resident farmers/entrepreneurs interested in developing a farm micro-enterprise may contact Shelley at sghulbert@aol.com. In addition we are hoping to attract a naturopathic, large animal veterinarian to the Neighborhood. The farm is considered one unit in the condominium association (which consists of 29 homes, 1 farm and 1 office building for a total of 31 units). The farmland is the farm’s limited common area, which is land over which the farmers have sole control. In this way the farmers are free to make the best choices for the sustainability of the farm.
