ELSEWHERE FARMElsewhere Farm is a 40-acre farm located near the south shore of Lake Superior in Herbster, Wisconsin, 35 miles northwest of Ashland and 50 miles west of Superior. The farm boasts about 700 fruit and nut trees, approximately half of which are in production on five acres. An intensively-planted market garden features heirloom and open-pollinated vegetable varieties. Native pollinators, rare breed Icelandic chickens, and occasionally an escaped Guinea Hog piglet (or ten) roam the landscape. The farm uses organic practices and permaculture design principles, employs renewable energy, and sequesters carbon in its rich soils through the addition of compost, pastured animals, and limits on mechanical tillage.
