MicroGreensNH believes Stacey Givens, proprietor of The Side Yard Farm has a great concept which is worthy of emulation all over America.  This is what micro-farming is about.

The Side Yard is a small scale urban farm located in the NE Cully Neighborhood in Portland, Oregon established in 2009. We provide local restaurants with creative organic produce and the community with food, education and opportunity. The farm is largely operated by volunteers who gain hands on experience with the seed to plate movement. The Side Yard offers 'Nomadic Chef' suppers & brunches, private catering, DIY workshops and kids camp. Their  focus is to provide local food for the local community, from the seeds they sow, animals they raise and to the craftsmanship they embrace.   They grow produce sustainably and ethically, with a creative touch. They are known for their micro crops, such as: micro breakfast radish, micro carrots, micro beets and more. The farm produces a wide range of seasonal veggies, fruits and culinary herbs that are harvested within hours of delivery to ensure quality and freshness.
