About us
Currently, 15 acres of flat clay-loam soil are under cultivation using organic practices, 10 acres in vegetables, and 5 acres in perennial fruit orchards. The farm’s Owner and Operator, Ashley Rodgers, has been farming in Georgia organically for her entire career. The farm’s growing style is medium-scale, mechanized production: tractors, tools and machinery, however, we are not a big AG farm. Sustainable farming practices are the backbone of Rodgers Greens and Roots: compost, cover crop, and crop rotation. Rodgers Greens and Roots farm is not only a testament to Ashley’s skill at growing greens and roots, but is also named after Ashley’s father, Robert George Rodgers, RGR, who passed away in 2011. At Rodgers Greens and Roots, we plan to build community awareness of local, seasonal, organic food through providing quality ethical certified organic produce to our local community. We currently sell to many Atlanta restaurants, as well as every Saturday morning (April-December) at Peachtree Road Farmers Market in Atlanta, and the Morningside Farmers Market in Atlanta (year round). We look forward to continue building a community of people around our farm that nourishes, nurtures, and cultivates love.
