ChoZen Farm is dedicated to regenerating our soils and ecosystems with the help of our local communities. As responsible stewards of this beloved land we are continuing the work of rebuilding, restoring and maintaining the natural balance of this lush environment while giving back more than we take. Our farm initiatives recognize the importance of food and closed looped systems in promoting health and well-being from soil to plate back to soil.
