Morning Star Farm

This 34-acre organic farm is based on an historic homestead which we began to call home in 1988. We consider this land to be a creative sanctuary where we work hard while striving to foster balance and health for all life. Over the years, with the help of many dear people and creatures, we have raised our children and started a family farm, producing abundant food for our local markets, restaurants, food bank and schools. Morning Star Farm has been a source of great inspiration, retreat, and healing for many. It is our hope to continue to steward this land as our home and as a nourishing sanctuary to share in a sustainable life-giving way.

Growing food for Orcas

Throughout the evolution of Morning Star Farm, our focus in growing produce has always been to provide food for our island community. We work hard to offer vital food and flowers to all sectors of the community, which includes neighbors via CSA, farmers market, local grocery stores, restaurants, schools, and food bank. This 2022 Season we are offering a Produce CSA. Our 2022 Produce CSA will begin the week of May 31st. You can also find our produce every Saturday at the Farmers Market in Eastsound May-September.

Our flowers: food for the soul

Growing flowers at Morning Star Farm has been a passion project of Mimi’s since she started the Farm. Mimi’s love for growing flowers comes from an even deeper passion for sharing beauty with as many people as possible. With this desire, Morning Star Farm is excited to offer weekly flower shares as well as flower orders for weddings, special events, and those seeking local flowers. You can also pick up one of our beautiful bouquets at the Saturday Farmers Market in Eastsound.

“Good work finds the way between pride and despair.
It graces with health.
It heals with grace.
It preserves the given so that it remains a gift.

By it, we lose loneliness:

We clasp the hands of those who go before us,
and the hands of those who come after us;

we enter the little circle of each other’s arms,
and the larger circle of lovers whose hands are joined in a dance,

and the larger circle of all creatures, passing in and out of life,

who move also in a dance, to a music so subtle and vast that no ear hears it except in fragment”

-Wendell Berry
