Farm Description and Practices |
Hopewell Farm is a four-generation family farm located in Whatcom County’s Nooksack Valley. Originally established as a dairy, the Dykstra family have diversified the farm over the past thirty years by expanding into certified organic blueberry and mixed vegetable production. The farm was started as a dairy by Pete’s father, Jim Dykstra, in 1967. Fifteen years later Pete began diversifying into growing vegetables for wholesale marketing to food processors. Today Hopewell Farm has 16 acres in certified organic blueberries and 40 acres in mixed vegetables, plus 240 acres of pasture land for their certified organic dairy. |
