Mission

Red Beet Row is a small education farm in Ashtabula County, OH, where we attempt to grow the world we want to live in. Through hands-on classes, tours, and demonstrations, we aim to show that any person, no matter how rich or poor, can meet all of their basic needs for free. As global economic and climatic shifts occur, we experiment with permaculture and holistic methods that stabilize human livelihood, build community, and provide meaningful work and happiness on a local level. We celebrate the natural world! Nature’s infinite complexity and beauty constantly provide us with purpose and healing – we wish to share this experience with others!

Take a workshop, schedule an appointment for a tour, or peruse our how-to materials.

Support our educational efforts and purchase our homegrown plants & products!
