coeur et sol means heart + soil
We are urban farmers with a mission to grow commercial produce sustainably in Essex County, NJ
Our small business development is guided by our desire to help feed, educate, and enrich urban ecosystems with locally sourced agriculture grown organically. Coeur et Sol Farms and gardens are spaces where we hope to connect food, community, and sustainability by applying market gardening principles.
