Why Is Whiskey Hill Farms’ Work So Important?
At Whiskey Hill Farms & Science Center, David Blume and his team combine cutting-edge regenerative agriculture and technologies with advanced alternative energy methods — a much-needed integration of agriculture and potent biology — to produce clean energy that will make fossil fuels and petroleum pesticides obsolete.
In conjunction with demonstrating elegant cycles of full-circle, waste-free resource use and co-production, Whiskey Hill Farms shows ways in which agriculture can go beyond organic sustainable methods to truly regenerative methods — repairing and improving the earth with every crop.
Whiskey Hill Farms Regenerative Farm & Science Center focuses on the practical use and understanding of new ecological biological technology, regenerative methods, tools, and resources. Projects at the Farm include a state-of-the-art local-scale alcohol distillery with green CO₂ as a byproduct and an integrated methane digester and marsh that absorbs surplus nutrients, making both clean water and tons of plant-based protein for humans and livestock.
Other Farm projects include mariculture, production of fertilizer from local agricultural waste, seaweed farming, greenhouse construction, soil heating with heat exchangers, and deep treatments and inoculations for soil regeneration.
