Heritage Food Conservation

Welcome to Omega Blue Farm's online store.

We sell our Poultry direct through local farm markets and other pickup locations. We usually have lots of Chicken and Turkey in stock. This store was not able to process the poultry products properly and therefore we have stopped taking poultry orders through this store. However, we have left the descriptions and prices up for you to review, disregard the "sold out" tags. You are welcome to email us and arrange specific items and available pickup locations.



Our Mission:

Omega Blue Farms is a heritage animal and heirloom plant conservation farm. The animal and plant varieties we utilize are maintained, restored, and improved using traditional breeding and morganic practices.

Unlike the food found in the grocery store, the heritage foods we offer are grown from publicly (Canadian) owned genetics. By buying Omega Blue, you are supporting your own Food Independence.

About Us: 

Omega Blue Farms was started in 2004 by myself (Wayne) and Dawn Osborne when we moved to the Spider Lake area after buying a raw 10 acre lot. Our property was previously mined for gravel, sand, and peat but came with a southern exposure, sandy soil, and an abundance of spring fed water. To protect our long term farming aspirations, we had our rural residential property added to the Agricultural Land Reserve and quickly obtained Farm Status.

Our farming venture started as a poultry breeding operation where have been restoring Ameraucanas, Muscovy ducks, and Bronze turkeys right from the start. Excellent drainage and ample spring water running through each pen has helped these breeds thrive and become recognized as amongst the best examples of their breeds available. Our sandy soil started out lacking any organic substance, but has been slowly improved by naturally pasturing the poultry.

With the soil improving, Dawn and I started moving towards developing a garden in 2008 when we terraced the slope between the homesite and the poultry runs. It was time to start focussing some of our genetics expertise on heirloom vegetable conservation. By 2010, we started our seedline whichwas extremely well received. We look forward to a future where Omega Blue Farms matures into a good old fashioned mixed farm, supporting the sustainable conservation of our heritage food supply.
