Goods

We manufacture biodegradable pots and products on our family’s farm using 100% renewable and recycled, composted cow manure. We began by offering the horticultural industry a more sustainable alternative to plastic and peat. We have the ability to prototype and custom build products for packaging, surveying, hunting, and other industries. We offer biodegradable pots wholesale and for resale and distribution.

Landmarks

Beckley Furnace (also known as “East Canaan #2” during the Barnum and Richardson years, and also known as East Canaan Iron Furnace Industrial Monument) produced pig iron until the winter of 1918-19.  Constructed of locally quarried marble, the furnace was originally thirty-two feet in height and thirty feet square at the base.  Later, after the Barnum Richardson Company acquired it, the height was raised to forty feet making it one of the largest of forty-three blast furnaces in the Salisbury Iron District.
