Melliflora
Vendor
Set on rolling forest, grassland and shaded draws near Troy, Idaho, Mellifera Farm was homesteaded in the late 1800's and maintained as a diverse family farm for much of the next century. Today, the farm is a special place, inspired by art and science, and dedicated to the sustainable production of cut flowers, Icelandic sheep for meat and fiber, and queen bees.
While we are not a certified organic farm, we do follow organic practices. To as great a degree possible, we aim to maintain a closed loop system: grazing our sheep on the property and feeding them our own hay off-season, making our own compost for the flower farm using sheep manure and vegetable matter from the farm etc.
