What We Produce

Tilapia thrive in our solar-heated closed system. The same water fertilizes raft beds of lettuce, basil, cilantro, and microgreens — without a drop of synthetic fertilizer. Near-zero water waste.

  • Fresh tilapia for the farm's fish taco & farm dinner menu
  • Year-round lettuce & herb production for restaurants
  • Microgreens for Bend's hotel and restaurant market
  • Welsh Harlequin ducks working alongside the pond system
  • Recirculation pond doubles as landscape & wildlife feature

Welsh Harlequin Ducks

Our ducks are working members of the farm — managing pests, fertilizing the soil, and contributing rich eggs. Their natural habitat around the recirculation pond ties together the farm's water, food, and fertility systems.
