Fat Dragon Farm
The Sable Project partners with Fat Dragon Farm to provide our artists in residence with local, organic, healthy, and delicious food. Run by Otto Pierce and Sara Bachman, Fat Dragon’s gardens of herbs, flowers, fruits, and vegetables are located right on the Sable Land.
Growing organically, Fat Dragon incorporates elements of permaculture, biointensive mini-farming, and companion planting to grow tasty and nutritious veggies and herbs in the circular gardens. The small fruit orchard includes apple and peach trees, blueberries, backberries, grape vines, elderberries, and more.
Partnering with the farm is integral to the mission and sustainability of Sable’s programs, and creates a meditative and healing space for our residents to spend time in. Take a peak at the gardens here!
Fat Dragon also makes local pure VT maple syrup, and creates and bakes garden-topped wood-fired pizzas at local farmers markets, for our Food and Art Friday gatherings, catered events, and for local businesses.
