About Roots Farm:
We are a certified organic, diversified vegetable farm in Tiverton, RI.  We grow year-round on a small acreage using no-till, intensive and compact farming methods.  We practice regenerative farming, and building healthy soil is our focus.

We use six unheated, moveable high tunnels for year-round growing, producing fresh veggies that are sold primarily through our summer and winter farmshare (CSA) programs and three farmers markets. We strive to produce the most nutrient dense crops for the health of the soil, vegetables, and customers.
