What is Raven Wood Gardens?

Raven Wood Gardens is a purposeful and sustainable gardening experience using organic gardening techniques.

We always have health and wellness in mind. We use certified non-GMO seeds, natural composting, companion planting, soil probiotics, and beneficial insects, such as soil enriching red worms in our therapeutic gardens.

All weeds are hand picked. No commercial pesticides are ever used. We also have happy chickens!
