Producer
Leisen's Bridgeway Farm, located in Windsor, CA, specialized in organic figs during the summer months.
Both Corrie and Janet earned biochemistry degrees from UC Davis and bring their scientific backgrounds to problem solving on the farm. Long years of dealing with pests on a large farm have taught them that staying ahead of the problem is important. Using organic techniques requires careful observation and encouraging the balance in the natural world to keep pests and diseases from getting out of control. Similar to dentistry, prevention is key. Strengthening plants so they can resist diseases and pests is somewhat akin to prevention in dentistry.
They are continuing a long family tradition started in 1870 by Corrie’s great grandfather. Both Janet and Corrie’s families have history of farming and selling produce in Sonoma County.
