Wild Aster Farm

Brian and Melissa, the owners, bring a wealth of experience to their farm. Brian, with his diverse skills in trades and maintenance, ensures the farm's infrastructure is well-kept. Melissa, with a background in Wildlife Science and Agriculture Education, manages the daily operations, focusing on planning, growing, and processing the herbs and flowers. Their shared belief in the healing power of food and plants drives their mission to provide healthy products for their family and community.

The farm employs a holistic approach to agriculture, carefully selecting plant varieties that serve multiple purposes, such as supporting wildlife and pollinators, and offering medicinal and culinary benefits. They adhere to no-till, sustainable, and regenerative farming principles, avoiding harsh chemicals and sprays. This method ensures the health of the soil and the surrounding ecosystem.

The farm also hosts classes and workshops, teaching others how to grow their own herb gardens and use medicinal herbs. They offer a range of products, including fresh and dried herbs, tinctures, infused oils, and dried flowers. The farm is home to various 'employees,' including chickens for egg and compost production, and pets that contribute to pest control and general farm happiness. Brian and Melissa are passionate about sharing their knowledge and products with the community, emphasizing the importance of food as medicine.
