More good, pertinent info from Vicki:

We do not use any pesticides on our farm.  We intersperse decoy plants
(radish, sunflower) into the crops and we use pure garlic oil spray to
deter.  I have also been known to curse at flea beetles! (It helps)
Nitrogen is supplied by rotating legumes (natural nitrogen fixers)
throughout the farm land.  We also use a manure/sawdust compost.  We add
calcium to the soil when it needs sweetening.  We have always been able to
go into the fields and pull a carrot or pick a tomato and not worry about
washing - just enjoy it right out there.  We want our customers to feel the
same.

I'm feeling pretty good about this.
