Frog Song Organics | Organic Farm | Central Florida

Organic fresh produce and more

This video interview was from 4 years ago but it’s still relevant to today. It’s also nice to take a look back to see how far we’ve come.

Video Caption: At Frog Song Organics in North Central Florida, John Bitter grows a little bit of everything, upwards of 80 crops in a year. Figuring out his rotations is the key to success as an organic farmer, and cover crops are an integral part of every rotation. Some kind of cover crop is growing somewhere on the farm year round. Rye and other grasses are typical because they suppress nematodes and improve soil quality. They are either worked into the soil or are grazed. Sunn hemp is often grown in the summer.

Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) offers farmer-driven, grassroots grants and education programs. Since 1988, SARE grantees have been putting the principles of sustainable agriculture into practice on farms and ranches in every state and island protectorate.
