 Bluebird Farm raises healthy, flavorful, vegetables, pastured meats, and eggs using techniques that improve the health of our land and contribute to a diverse ecosystem. We are dedicated to building living soils to ensure the quality and vigor of our vegetables and animals. All of our animals are raised outside on pasture without the use of antibiotics or synthetic hormones. Pastured animals are healthier and are able to express natural behaviors. Healthy, happy animals, raised on pasture produce high quality meat that is low in saturated fats, more flavorful, and higher in essential omega 3 fatty acids than conventional meats. We produce pastured eggs, chicken, turkey, lamb, and pork. Our vegetables are grown in living soils without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fungicides and harvested at the peak of freshness. Road weary grocery store vegetables cannot match the ripeness, flavor, and nutrition of our freshly harvested vegetables. We grow over 100 varieties of vegetables including heirlooms. Seasonal vegetables available April-December. You can purchase our products at local farmers markets, at the farm, or through our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. Local restaurants also purchase our food. We are proud to provide all of our customers with high-quality, ethical food while contributing to a healthy environment and our community. Farmers Marie Williamson and William Lyons graduated from Warren Wilson College in 2007. After years of studying biology, ecology, and sustainable agriculture and gaining experience on farms around the United States and in Europe we returned home to Western North Carolina.
