Company description
Do Right started in 2021 and quickly became a leader in organic specialty flower growing on the West Coast. Do Right specializes in growing a large selection of often unusual varieties at a larger than usual quantity while maintaining high quality. The farm is located 30 minutes north of Santa Cruz and south of Pescadero, CA on the coast adjacent to Big Basin State Park. Do Right grows about an acre of perennials and three acres of annuals and biennials, all certified organic. Do Right engages in various farming practices to give back to the land that supports it, like annual cover crop planting, no to low-till farming in perennial areas, integrated pest management, organic growing practices, mulching and more. Do Right is supported by a skilled crop scout, helping farmers to proactively address pests and disease and strategize how to reduce losses in the future. Owner, Kelly Brown, aims for Do Right to be a safe place for workers by providing a supportive working environment that steers clear of the misogyny, homophobia, and racism all too familiar on farms.
