Crops are planted in succession to provide a continuous weekly supply vegetables and many types of herbs

integrated cropping techniques, companion planting, and intensive greenhouse production - all of which help
to reduce risk factors for us and our shareholders and which provides multiple benefits to the soil and the
regional environment. We grow year round - utilizing both field season extension techniques as well as a 96'
solar greenhouse. See more at www.sandersridge.com - or better yet, come out to the farm for a visit! We are
