Walking Bear Ranch Organics

We are a small 15 acre community-style farm that uses an "integrated", closed system of food production. Our emphasis is on 'being in harmony with the planet". The livestock, which consists of 40 milk goats, 3 milk cows, 250 hens, 15 wool sheep, 4 llamas and 2 hogs, provides the gardens with natural fertilizer. The gardens are made up of 50 raised beds, 2 greenhouses, 7 'hoop' houses and a potting shed - as well as a cut-flower garden and an English herb garden. All the seed used is open pollinated, heritage, non GMO and we are now in the process of learning how to save our own. The public is welcome to tour and/or partake of our training sessions. We offer internships and are now members of WWOOF and also offer a "work exchange" program. The public is welcome to make use of the picnic tables and enjoy veggies 'just picked' from the gardens or buy fresh eggs and produce from the 'Veggie Shack '. Otherwise, join us at either the Whitefish or Columbia Falls Farmer's Markets. Shares in CSA are also available.
