ABOUT BURNS BLOSSOM FARM:
BURNS BLOSSOM FARM is certified organic by the REAL ORGANIC PROJECT, C.C.O.F. & U.S.D.A. Owned and operated by Mel MacTavish & Kyle Forrest Burns, with a combined 23 years of market farming experience under their belts. Our diversified farm enterprise spans two distinct locations less than 2 miles apart. We are driven by our passion for farming, food, and family. Our work is guided by a commitment to cultivating a highly diverse, regenerative, and thriving farm that nourishes both the land and our neighbors. We strive to create a farm culture rooted in purpose by the joy of growing and sharing good food. Our goal is to be a beacon of resilient, responsible farming where hard work, deep respect for the land, and a love for great food come together.
SANTA CLARA AVE. FARM
Our Santa Clara Ave. Farm was purchased in September of 2023 and lies just beyond city limits, maintaining a close proximity to CSU Chico campus. This larger farm affords us the opportunity to cultivate certain crops at scale, with a special focus on seed garlic, berries, cut-flowers and lots of heirloom tomatoes. We utilize three caterpillar tunnels and a 1/2 acre shade structure/trellis support for organic raspberries & thornless blackberry production. We are currently in the process of building a high tunnel greenhouse and wash/pack barn in the middle of the field.
This farm serves as a dynamic space for experimentation, where we delve into innovative practices like grown-in-situ mulch, cover cropping, occultation, and the ongoing refinement of no-till and low-till methods on 4 acres of land.
