Plant life of the Farm
Blue Dasher Farm believes that along with livestock, plant life plays a crucial role on the farm, even the weeds!
The plant life of Blue Dasher farm is critical and fundamental in who we are. They play a role in supporting the livestock, supporting soil health, creating a functional and healthy ecosystem, and also provide food and products that we are able to eat, enjoy and sell.
Our Farm
Major players in the plant team:
-apple & plum orchard
-raspberry patch
-elderberry lane
-mini vini (small grape vineyard in the making)
-home production vegetables and various other fruit
-various herbs and flowers
-a baby "jams & jellies" permaculture orchard in the making
The plants and animals work together:
Our farm feeds and supplies ourselves, our families and our communities with many goods and nutritious foods. The flowers also fill another important need - mental health.
This farm helps us introduce a generation to farming regeneratively with a full-system approach where plants, soil, invertebrates like insects, and livestock all integrate into a vibrant ecosystem of life.
