The Erickson MicroFarm is a small start to an ambitious project. At a
time when more than one in ten Americans suffer food insecurity, our
aim is to help Superior become increasingly self-resourced in meeting
this most fundamental need.

The MicroFarm is planned a source of food, but just as importantly as a
source of knowledge. Under the guidance of Ed Williams, a world
renowned expert on regenerative practices, we’ll helping the people of
Superior master the skills to grow nutritious, delicious food in their
own backyards.

In His Words:

“A LEHR Garden works by combining technological solutions with
organic gardening methods to create a closed loop,
complete ecosystem that maximizes productivity while keeping human labor
to a minimum. Hardware similar to aquaponics automates tasks like
watering and fertilizing. Rich, organic soil keeps plants healthy.
Healthy plants keep pests and diseases to a minimum.”

Thanks to the generosity of the late Carl Erickson, we have secured a small plot that we can own for a nominal sum to launch the MicroFarm.
We urgently need financial support to complete the land transfer and purchase initial equipment and supplies. If you’re inspired by this vision of local food production, please donate today!
