Getting Started

Does Heirloom teach JM Fortier’s market gardener method?

Heirloom applies the method rather than teaching it. JM Fortier co-founded Heirloom and his way of growing is built into its defaults; the method itself is taught in his book The Market Gardener and at the Market Gardener Institute.

  • Standard beds, tight successions and planned rotations are what Heirloom proposes by default. An experienced grower changes any of it.
  • For a market gardening course, the school’s farm invites its students, who follow the real plan. See Teach market gardening or advise farms.
