Monarch Butterfly Field

Erin's Farm added and tends to a half acre of milkweed, butterfly weed and other pollinator friendly plants to help the Monarch Butterfly trek across the country.  

Instead of using chemicals to kill the existing grass and weeds, we used a process called "solarization".  We used sheets of plastic and let the sun do the work of getting rid of the weeds. 

Next, we scattered seeds and watched it grow.  Every year, we watch as the native flowers continue to thrive.  We see butterflies, bees, birds and all kinds of wildlife thriving in this habitat.

2021 Conservation Farmer of the Year

This was awarded for our participation in conservation projects through NRCS, USDA, TACD, and the TN Dept. of Ag. 

2023 River Friendly Farm Certification

We joined a community of farmers who exemplify land and water stewardship and are committed to ensuring a healthy and resilient future for generations to come. The River Friendly Farms certification program recognizes farmers who are good stewards of land and water resources, educates the public about the importance of their efforts, and supports their conservation journey.
