Farm Happenings for August 16, 2019

Congratulations on being one of the first members of our BMA Farm CSA! Thank you for choosing to support us and for trusting us to serve you. Especially as we start out I'd like to encourage you to provide us with lots of feedback, both negative and positive, as we seek to meet and surpass your expectation. We hope you enjoy your first veggie box!

BMA Farm Director

Founded in 1955, agriculture was a key component of Blue Mountain Academy school program. BMA operated a farm and dairy through the mid-90’s when it shut its farm down due to financial difficulties. In 2012, the school board voted to return to its roots and restart its agriculture program. Starting with a couple of greenhouses and a small vegetable garden, this program has expanded to include, laying hens, approximately 3 acres of veggie gardens, berries, herbs, orchards, herbs, bees, hay, and grain crops. In 2017 a portion of the farm became certified organic, and in 2019 the remaining fields were certified as well.
