Blue Dog Greens
Blue Dog Greens Farm was established in 2002 when nearly 30 acres of historic certified organic farmland was purchased and planting ensued in a modest 1/4 acre garden. Our farmland has been Certified Organic since 1973. Every year we are independently inspected and are currently certified organic by Oregon Tilth and thus are USDA Certified Organic.

- When I shop at Publix, I spend a lot of time in the produce section looking at the organic varieties available -- it is amazing how nicely presented the food is and how that section has really grown! 5*****

- Nice lens. I'd love to buy Organic food, but it is just so expensive, at least in the stores it is, and I don't know where else to find it locally! Love your puppy, what a cutie!
