About Green Door Farms

Green Door Farms is now entering its 4th season. Matt Gal and Summer Sherrod founded Green Door Farms in 2016 after Matt earned his Bachelors of Science in Horticulture. What began as a 1/3 of an acre backyard microfarm in South St. Louis has now expanded into a 4 acre collaborative effort with the goal of producing the most nutrient dense organic vegetables in the area. We strive to produce a diverse and interesting range of high quality produce by working in harmony with the ecology of the land. We never use synthetic fertilizers or destructive pesticides that could jeopardize the health of our soil and our customers. We instead rely on creative solutions based on optimizing plant health through the soil, permaculture practices, encouraging natural predation, and modern farming innovations such as insect netting. We take a holistic, ecological approach to the farm, always trying to view our decisions through the lens of the system as a whole.
