About Us
Delpine Farms is a family run, mixed vegetable market garden located at the foothills of the Little Belt Mountains and Castle Mountains in Martinsdale, Montana. We rotate laying hens around the farm to produce the most excellent pasture raised eggs. We farm a wide variety of seasonal vegetables using farming practices and plant selections that work with nature instead of against it.
Delpine Farms grows fresh and nutritious food to serve our community in Central Montana. We hope to help provide food solidarity to our community and help encourage others to do so in their communities. We want our farm to educate and inform our community on ways they can help improve health and well being for themselves, their family and their community. We want to provide our Delpine Farms fresh grown vegetables and pasture raised eggs, together with other Montana grown and made products that are in line with our ethics and community goals. We want to provide more access to quality food that can heal our bodies and our land. We hope Delpine Farms can be a place where the community can access delicious local foods, gather, share recipes, and cultivate community solidarity. Imagine if every community, no matter how small, had a farm trying to do the same thing? Join us on this journey!

Practices
We consider our foods to be beyond organically grown but are not certified under USDA guidelines. We can only begin to produce a healthy crop, once we have nurtured our soil so above all else, we focus on developing a diverse and thriving soil biology. We utilize compost, compost teas, cover crops, use mineral amendments for a balanced soil, beneficial flowers and plants attracting beneficial insects, follow regenerative and no-till practices and plant seeds that are developed for growing in our extreme and changing climate conditions. We do not use any herbicides, pesticides or fungicides.
