Green Gulch is an organic farm and garden that uses only sustainable practices. Similar to our efforts on the Redwood farm, they don’t use any chemical pesticides or fertilizers, and they utilize compost to produce healthy and organic fruits, herbs, and vegetables.
Green Gulch Farm is located in Marin County, just north of San Francisco, in a valley that opens out onto the Pacific Ocean. Not only is it in a beautiful area right next to the beach, but the farm itself has an aura of health and sustainability.
It is open to the public and there is a path that goes through the farm to the beach. I have visited many times, and each time I walk along the path and admire how healthy the soil and crops look, with rows and rows of lush green vegetables (without using any chemicals!).
They sell their produce at the Ferry Plaza Farmer’s Market in San Francisco and also on their farm on Sundays from around 11 am to noon.
Some of the things they sell:
Lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, collards, chard, beets, spinach, chicories, arugula, mizuna, garlic, leeks, fennel, radishes, zucchini, winter squash, potatoes, turnips, green beans, rhubarb, bunching onions, pea shoots, nettles, purslane, and herbs
