Urban Regenerative Micro-Farm Services
Regenerative Soil Services
Renova Sustainable Agriculture provides tools and services to new and existing Urban Regenerative Micro-Farmers, enabling them to enjoy a closer relationship with their land, as well as a deeper awareness of its structure and potential for productive cropping. Our soil preparation services are designed to equip new and pre-existing Micro-Farmers for profitable growing seasons.

Honeybee Swarm Removal
Swarm Removal - FAST!
Have you discovered a swarm of honeybees on your property? Renova Sustainable Agriculture offers honeybee swarm removal and non-invasive colony trap-outs, as well as cut-out removals for established colonies within a structure or tree. Rescued honeybees are rehomed across the state in our honeybee Restoration project.

Marginland and Wetland Conservation
Renova’s Marginland and Wetland Conservation program is a grassroots local mission for providing maximally-impactful topsoil retention, stormwater reinvestment and marginland redemption services. We serve the northern Piedmont with our plantings of native wetland trees and shrubs, thereby converting feral properties into productive conservation plots for indigenous flora and fauna, and providing forage and habitat for threatened species.
Our projects also provide generational carbon sequestration as well as new clean oxygen production, thereby maximally leveraging the contributions of previously un-workable lands towards local agricultural and conservation efforts.
Honeybee and Pollinator Habitat Restoration Project
At Renova Sustainable Agriculture, we believe that to be truly sustainable, we must address more than simply the land, its soil structure and its flora - we must also address our native pollinator population, our honeybees, and their native forages as well.
With our Honeybee and Pollinator Habitat Restoration project, we address the three most imperative aspects of pollinator stewardship in Virginia - the genetic resilience of the honeybee, the current status of Virginia’s annual state nectarflow, and the re-florishing of the native melliferrous forest canopies and groundcovers that our pollinators rely on for survival.
Renova Sustainable Agriculture provides restorative plantings of indigenous canopies and groundcovers with very strong nectar flows, in an effort to re-bolster the forages needed by the pollinators of Virginia. A land is only as fertile as its pollinators are strong, and we simply must provide them with the sustainance they require, to survive and thrive.
American Elderberry Cuttings and Potted Elderberry Rootstock
The American Elderberry, Sambucus canadensis, offers urban regenerative Micro-Farmers a spectacular opportunity for healing their lands, while enjoying considerable customer demand for their produce and naturopathic bio-medicinals, the year-around.
Renova Sustainable Agriculture, LLC offers a selection of dormant cuttings and potted rootstock, available to health enthusiasts, hobbyist gardeners, and local Micro-Farm operations across the Piedmont of Virginia.
Naturopathic Apiculture
Regenerative Agriculture is far more than soil and flora - it encompasses our pollinators as well! Pollinators are the oft-overlooked hinge-pins of our nation’s agricultural system, and without their contributions, agriculture as whole would be greatly jeopardized.
Naturopathic Apiculture is a sustainable stewardship approach to beekeeping. It encourages a new (ancient, really) approach to the hive, the honeybee’s genetic makeup, and the traits that come from local and regional genetic diversity. Within Naturopathic Apiculture is found an answer to the ravaging effects of pathogens, pests, stresses, and pesticides, which are commonly encountered in conventional apiculture.
