Blue Dasher Farm

Blue Dasher Farm Field Day
We had a fabulous field day this year, with nearly 150 people coming out to join us for food, community, and learning together.
Farmer and Plant Biochemist Bob Quinn told his inspiring story of shifting his family operation from growing commodities to growing food as medicine. Find more about his mission and story at his website: https://quinninstitute.org/
Dietitian Kalie Rider spoke about the fascinating connection with food, soil, and human health, and how that ties to her own family's farming operations. Find a brief bio and her contact info here: https://ndglc.org/mentor-network/mentors/rider-k.html
​
We also heard about our research, surpassing 1,000 Farms, some of the health data we are collecting, and guests were able to experience sampling the farm. We had wonderful music, delicious local food and staff stories. We thank everyone for coming and look forward to more community events!
Save the date for 2025!

We believe in a food system that promotes soil health, farm biodiversity, and nutrient dense food- all while benefiting the farmers who grow it.
