To put it simply: I love to eat and grow beautiful, delicious, fresh, healthy foods.

A few years ago I began to understand where my food was coming from; not just how it was grown/raised, but what other products/processes/tools were being utilized. I was not in agreement with a lot of what I was learning was standard practice and wanted to take control of the quality of the foods I was consuming by beginning to grow my own food at home organically while transitioning to a plant based vegan lifestyle.

Amazed at the flavor and quality of the food I was growing for my own consumption and to share with family and friends, I felt the need to grow even more food to share with my community. My need to share this delicious produce, I believe, stems from my Iranian/Persian culture, which considers meals to be a very social activity; an abundance of foods meant to be shared with family and friends.

In the spring of 2019, I found myself staring at what I saw to be a blank canvas of a lawn/yard, imagining growing as much beautiful food as I could fit in the space available. I immediately began the transformation from your average yard to Nooshe Joon Farm, suburban micro farm, providing locally, lovingly, organically grown plants and produce using organic seed. Nooshe Joon translates to ‘Eat it to your health/May this food nourish your soul/May your soul be nourished’ in Farsi (think ‘bon appetit!’, but more dramatic). I felt this really was the perfect name for my farm, as the translation is exactly my goal in sharing.

While I did till to create much of the space I plant in, I believe in using regenerative/sustainable farming practices that improve soil health, which will result in healthier plants and better quality produce. There are no synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, fungicides used on my farm. I also practice farming ‘by hand’, meaning planting, cultivating and harvesting is done by hand/manually. I choose to companion plant in order to create an environment where weeds will not have an opportunity to grow and pests may be deterred.

I grow and sell microgreens (available in 'grow your own' kits, live trays, packaged, or grown to order) year round, seedlings, Grow Your Own Kits for various kitchen and small gardens (seasonally or by request), as well as seasonal herbs and vegetables. I have a seasonal farm stand that I stock with produce the same day it is harvested, and can be found at a number of pop up markets locally year round. You can also enjoy my food when you dine at a number of coffee shops and restaurants in the area.
