Copper Kettle Farm
DARLENE2021-03-23T08:27:36-05:00Rory O’Dwyer started Copper Kettle Farm in 2018 after apprenticing on organic farms for years. Herbs, cut flowers, and berries are the specialty of Copper Kettle, and that’s easy to see from their Instagram page full of beautiful photos that bring alive the farm’s motto of “Plants are Magic”. With these gorgeous flowers, from old favorites to unusual specialty flowers, Copper Kettle crafts beautiful work‐of‐art arrangements for weddings and special occasions.
The farm also grows medicinal and trendy herbs including Tulsi & Peppermint, St. John’s Wort, Nettles, Calendula, Dandelion, Ashwaganda, Chamomile, Sage, Motherwort, Lemon Balm & more. Rory plans to expand the farm with fresh summer berries including Raspberries, Blackberries, Elderberries, and Blueberries.
Progressive Grower supplies Copper Kettle with the right products to get the growing season off to a strong start, mindful of their organic growing requirements. This spring, Rory sourced specialty nutrient boosters from Progressive, like Kreher’s Farm 8‐2‐2 Organic Poultry Fertilizer, made from a blend of composted poultry manure and feather meal. This multi‐ purpose fertilizer can be used for new turf, established lawns, and vegetables. Another natural product helping Copper Kettle bloom is the OMRI‐Listed 13‐0‐0 Blending Base Fertilizer from Nature Safe, a natural organic dry pelleted fertilizer with high nitrogen content in a slow release commercial grade blend.
To make the most of Progressive Grower’s one‐stop supply convenience, Rory added drip irrigation supplies like drip tape, couplings, and plugs to his spring order; all delivered on the same truck.
