Boulder\u2019s Farm is a small family farm and forest that uses sustainable, human-scale practices in the ecotone<\/a> between the Willamette Valley and the Coast Range in Pedee, Oregon. Here’s an overview of what we do here, and what products and services we offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firewood<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the weather turns nice, we head outside. There you are, you and your friends, sitting out back. The drinks, the food, the grill and the fire pit. Everyone\u2019s having a great time.
Oops, you forgot the wood.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t let this happen to you. Come to Boulder\u2019s Farm. Grab some wood.
Stock up that fire pit so you\u2019ll be ready. For all you grill masters we\u2019ve got oak, ideal for richer meats like pork or beef. If you\u2019re grilling chicken or fish, we\u2019ve got plenty of lighter hardwoods like maple and fruit wood.
We don\u2019t deliver but don\u2019t worry. It\u2019s a beautiful drive out here. You can even hit a few area wineries and make a day of it. Drop by, get some firewood and meet our crew, including our towering Clydesdale horses, Shasta and Elf. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organically Grown Hay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This hay is first cutting, mostly fescue, with some ryegrass and orchard grass. We hand-weeded the field before we cut. No herbicides, pesticides, or fertilizers have been used on our fields since at least 2016. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is beautiful green fragrant hay. It’s what we feed our own horses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chemical-free Fir Shavings and Sawdust<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Produced from our own trees that we harvested and milled (a mixture of Douglas-fir and grand fir trees. We use no chemicals during the milling process, so our sawdust is 100% natural wood and nothing else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For sale, you load. Available in bulk or bagged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulk: $4 per cubic yard (a full-size 8-foot pickup filled 2 feet deep is about 2.25 cubic yards)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heirloom Hops<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We recently began harvesting hops from our hundred year old bines. Like everything we produce our farm’s cluster hops are organically grown without pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. Brew your next batch of beer from vines that have been growing undisturbed since before Prohibition!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue Elderberries <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We also began harvesting our first crop of blue elderberries. Just like the rest of our products they’re 100% organically grown. Our elderberries are perfect for making wine, jam, syrup, pies or ice cream. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Orchard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After hacking through a half century’s worth of overgrowth we uncovered an apple orchard along with a few pear and plum trees. This fall we’ll have plenty of delicious Belmonts, Baldwins, White Winter Pearmains and other varieties. Our apples are great for cider making, both for home or commercial use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
