Bone Meadow Ranch & Gardens operates a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Program and produces farm fresh vegetables and herbs. Although we are not certified organic growers, we adhere to organic farming methods using no chemicals or pesticides. Weekly vegetable boxes ("Bounty Boxes") are available by subscription from June thru October each year. Please call for pricing or visit the farm's website for details.

We also raise Cashmere, Boer-X and Nubian-X meat goats, which are available for purchase on a limited basis.(Please call the farm for more information.) This year, we are very excited to be offering value-added goat meat products as well. We hope you'll visit our Farmers' Market stall this Fall for a sample of jerky.

Our website is updated frequently, so we invite you to visit it often for news about what we're doing at Bone Meadow Ranch & Gardens!.

The farm is open by appointment only.

We raise Nubian and Boer goats, as well as free-range heritage chickens. Our Nubians provide rich wholesome milk for cheese making and adding to soap. Boer kids are available for your freezer in very limited quantities. Day old chicks are available May – June. We hope to be able to provide fresh fruit and vegetables soon.

The Quesnel Agriculture Fair and Exhibition hosts a community agriculture fair in Quesnel every labour Day Weekend.

In 2008 Quesnel Exhibition and Fair saw many changes, and is well on the way to being the best in Northern BC. They have something to appeal to all ages. A special children’s activity center, as well as the traditional livestock, horticultural, arts and crafts exhibits will be there. Our Entertainment Tent will once more feature Quesnel’s own Homegrown Entertainment Talent.

Logger Sports will provide exciting entertainment for all ages. Precision horse riders and The Draft Horse preform in the outdoor arena for spectators. Our pet parade and the animals displays in the Agriplex have always been a hit with the young and old. The Old Iron display with the tractors and equipment add a presence of the past and our history. Beekeeper, FARSHA and the Ministry of Agriculture displays are set up around the grounds.

We strive to be a family event, and try to improve upon that with each succeeding year. This has many challenges, and we need volunteers from the community to help to work towards this goal. Volunteers can be as active as they desire from a couple of hours to an unlimited commitment. If you have a few minutes to organize a pet parade, talent show, childrens activity, etc. or would like to help with getting ready for the fair by painting signs or help put up posters. We welcome your time and effort large or small, the more people who help out the more successful our exhibition and fair will be. Volunteers receive a free pass to the fair and are welcome to attend our Christmas party.
