OYR is all about growing a lot of food on a little land using sustainable organic methods, while  keeping costs and labor at a minimum. Emphasis is placed on improving soil quality with compost, mulch, and compost tea.  No store-bought fertilizers, soil amendments, pesticides, compost activators, etc. are used.
