Blue Dasher Farm
A Research and Demonstration Farm in Regenerative Agriculture
Blue Dasher Farm combines cutting edge science with hands on experience to remove barriers to the adoption of regenerative agriculture. We are an organic, regenerative farm that stacks many enterprises, including raising bees, hair sheep, poultry, cut flowers, and a fledgling apple orchard.
We believe in a food system that promotes soil health, farm biodiversity, and nutrient dense food- all while benefiting the farmers who grow it and the communities around them.
Blue Dasher Farm also houses Ecdysis Foundation, an independent grass-roots agricultural research foundation. Ecdysis Foundation studies regenerative farms around the nation and shares their findings at no cost, with no strings attached. Find out more about Ecdysis Foundation here.
Upcoming!
Webinar: Pesticides Beyond the Field with Dr. Jon Lundgren
Friday, April 24 | 1pm
From our early study on captive white tail deer, to our recent paper on apex predators, to our future paper release on pheasants. We've done a range of research regarding neonicotinoids and effect on wildlife.
Across all of these studies the message is consistent- Neonics don't stay in the field.
In Dr. Jonathan Lundgren's upcoming webinar he will will dig into the science behind how neonics move through ecosystems and what that means for wildlife.
