Fire Valley Farm

At Edgewood’s Fire Valley Farm, healthy food and sustainable practices go hand-in-hand. All animals on the farm live the way nature designed for them – on open pasture and minimal supplementation with hormone-free, non-GMO feed in the winters.
Fire Valley Farm offers pork, lamb, turkey and chicken as well as livestock sales. All of the animals with the exception of the chickens are born right on the farm. Owners Rick and Maria Olson did their homework and planted crops for their pastures that they knew the animals would thrive on. They choose heritage breeds that have fewer health issues than factory breeds. The processing is done at licensed abattoirs.

The Fire Valley pigs are all Berkshires and Berkshire crosses. Berkshire pork is known for its texture and flavour – some call it the ‘Wagyu of pork’. Rick and Maria have started selling Hogget (yearling lambs) as well as expanding their existing livestock sales.
In addition to setting up at the Nakusp Farmers Market, Fire Valley is happy to announce that they will now be at the Wednesday Nelson Farmers Market and some Saturdays as well. New Denver and Vernon markets are on the list of possibilities this summer as well.

Offering heritage breeds raised in open pasture farmed the way you would have seen a century ago – Fire Valley Farm brings timelessness and quality to the Arrow Lakes region local food movement.
