I am Tom Berger. With my wife, Anne, we grow nutrient dense fruits and vegetables here at Berger Farms.
What is nutrient dense food?
Minerals in our agricultural soils are being depleted at an alarming rate. We as growers are simply mining the elements from the soil with every crop we harvest. Decades of fossil fuel fertilizers have been destroying the microbial community desperately needed in healthy soils. Plants need about 70 of the elements on the periodic table to reach their full potential. If the nutrients are not in the soil, they are not in your food.
We have been studying soil as a living organism for several years. We are learning how to develop and nurture a vibrant, living and healthy soil. By amending and balancing our soil with needed macro and micro-nutrients, our goal is to produce food loaded with the nutrition our bodies crave. We believe this missing nutrition has a direct relationship to the numerous health issues many people, both young and old, are dealing with in their daily lives.
Our Goal: SAVE THE WORLD. ONE SALAD AT A TIME.
