Blue Chicory Garden & Workshop is nestled in 170 acres of woodlands and fields in beautiful Lanark County, north of Perth and west of the village of Lanark.

Blue Chicory Garden is an organic market garden producing honey, veggies and herbs. The photo above shows part of the garden in early May when only the comfrey and garlic were green!

In the Blue Chicory Workshop we create hammocks, hammock chairs, muskoka chairs and other wood objects as we feel inspired.

Blue Chicory Communications is a our consulting service - Kristine works with individuals, small business, non-profit organizations, and all levels of government, offering business writing and project management.

We offer working vacations - you can work off part of your room and board by helping in the gardens, woods and workshop. Accommodation is guest bedroom or tent (provided). The Mississippi River flows by a corner of the property for swimming and canoeing.

Please contact Kristine and Malcolm for more information about farm-stays, products or services. Call us at 613-278-1226 or write to welcome-at-bluechicory.ca (we're trying to foil the spam-bots - please take out -at- and replace with the @ symbol).
