Elithorp Farm

About Us

We are a small family farm that has been farming for 35+ years. We use organic practices and have six 100 ft. greenhouses and two smaller seedling greenhouses. This enables us to start our popular Mediterranean cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers and herb pots early to be ready for local farmers markets, and our wholesale outlets. In addition, we farm about 17 acres outside for the rest of our crops.

Growing & Operating Practices

We are not certified organic, but we use totally organic practices. Organic fertilizer, soil, fish meal, feather meal, organic spray, if needed. We start with our six greenhouses to get us started in the spring, first with the seedling greenhouse and then transplant to the larger greenhouses. Then when we start outside crops, we use tunnel covers at the start because of our colder climate and late frosts.
