Third Way Farm is owned and operated by Tommy and Michelle Shireman. They broke ground on 67 acres in Havre de Grace, Maryland in 2015 and have shaped their farm around the principles of permaculture, sustainability, and regeneration.
Tommy and Michelle believe *good* farm is best conceived as a partner in a diverse and multi-faceted ecosystem, so they have chosen to diversify their portfolio by focusing our attention on stewardship of, rather than dominion over. As a testament to their stewardship, they are a no-till farm committed to developing the highest level of sustainable soil management for produce, protein, and fiber. In conjunction with no-till methods, the couple also practices companion planting, composting, and rotational grazing.
Remember to bring a water bottle, sunscreen, and dress in weather appropriate clothing.
This Field Day is based on work that is supported by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, U.S. Department of Agriculture, under grant number #: 2019-49400-30455
