Let’s take a moment to talk “Unconventionally grown produce” and why it’s so special!
Back before the USDA took over certification, Windfall Farms was under a state Organic certification category. Using ZERO pesticides, fungicides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers Morse Pitts very easily went above and beyond the requirements to meet ‘Organic’ standards. In 1990 the Organic Foods Production Act required the USDA develop national standards for Organic Certification. This certification actually allows for a certain level of synthetic items to be used in the farming process as well as only requiring a minimum of 3 years with soil that has not had pesticides!
Windfall choose to stay above those standards and is still waiting for a certification that meets OUR standards.
We hope to continue to help educate those who truly want a completely naturally grown vegetable.
Take a moment and look up the “list of accepted synthetic substances” that are under our national certification and then come chat with us and see why our preserved farmland is so important to continue on.

Obligatory preserve shot of these lil 🐢 who have a home in our protected waterway. It’s ESSENTIAL that this lands ecosystem and surrounding environment continues to be given the chance to thrive and grow. Our fight continues today and everyday to keep these guys safe. The goal? To continue Morse’s legacy of helping the future farmers have a fighting chance.✊🏼 #beaverdambrook
