Sun Roots Farm in Covelo, Mendocino County is a legacy craft farm deeply committed to regenerative agriculture and holistic ecosystem health. Their gardens are more than cannabis plots—vegetables, herbs, flowers, perennial and native medicinal plants, woodlands, alpacas, and food forests all coexist. Their cultivation techniques include growing from seed, building living soil, respecting wildlife habitat, and practicing pollination and native species gardens.
The farm holds DEM Pure certification and is a Certified Wildlife Habitat via the National Wildlife Federation, and in 2018 they were honored with a Regenerative Cannabis Farm award at the Emerald Cup. Their approach goes beyond “organic” in the sense that they aim to heal, restore, and give back—through closed-loop systems, composting, mindful soil building, water stewardship, and biodiversity.
