Flora Bay Farm

Flora Bay Farm Certified Naturally Grown cut flowers, herbs, hops, fruit and veggies.

Flora Bay Farm started by Courtney Smith (Farmer/Artist/Owner) and Steve Sawyer (Farm Advisor/Writer) in 2014. The micro-farm continues to grow, offering a diverse landscape of flowers, herbs, hops, fruits and vegetables grown with permaculture and bio-intensive practices. We do not use any chemicals or sprays and strive to help the farm to be pollinator friendly. Courtney and Steve's hope is to h

elp increase the availability of local foods and further strengthen the ties of community to area farmers and producers.

Daffs and mountain mint in our north orchard are out of dormancy, waiting for warmer temps. It’s exciting when the plants start growing again, but also a reminder that I (and all my fellow farmers) had better rest while we still can! The coming snow and cold af weather for the next few days will be perfect for resting!

April always had a smile and a nice thing to say. A positive force. Her and Brent (and boys) have a beautiful farm, The Flock Farm. The Flock Farm have been a part of the LEAF Food Hub family and April will be missed.

Hey there! Yes, I'm still farming. Yes, I'm still 'around'. NO, I'm not checking or interacting (much) on social media. I find this platform damaging to my mental health, damaging to my work flow, damaging to my fellow beings and just plain damaging in general. It's not for me anymore. So - it's best to contact me either by email or call/text.
My products can be found YEAR ROUND at LeafFoodHub.com - We deliver weekly!
You can also contact me directly (again, by email or phone) to arrange an order. I plan to be a vendor at the Carbondale Community Farmers Market (aka Winter Market) that starts in December.
Thanks to you all for supporting this small farm(her).
