According to the folks at Silver Creek Nursery, this farm is run by mother nature and 6 humans, including Steph and Zack Muma. Here, mother nature and the humans grow nursery stock trees specially conditioned and raised for their region’s growing conditions. With care and love, they experiment with different growing techniques to ensure a healthy farm ecosystem, including adding cover crops and livestock to their field rotations.

Join us at Silver Creek Nursery for a tour of the farm, including a first-hand look at their production practices for growing nursery tree stock without chemical sprays or GMOs. You’ll also get an up-close look at their farmer-led research trial comparing grafting methods.
