Minto Island Growers is a 30-acre diversified farm and nursery located in South Salem next to Minto Brown Island Park. We sell spring plant starts and certified organic produce through a CSA, the Salem Saturday Market, an on-site Farm Stand, and other local outlets. Two acres of blueberries are opened for U-Pick and picked for farm-direct sales, plus a Farm Food Cart and Wood-Fired pizza oven is located at the Farm Stand.  Other nursery projects include mint propagation as well as maintaining several acres of Camellia sinensis tea—Oregon’s oldest and only commercial scale tea planting. The family farm history includes a native plant nursery and many restoration and forestry projects that still shape the landscape and ethic of our farm, leaving wetland areas and diverse wildlife habitat. Our farm is deeply rooted in the community and we pride ourselves in having an enthusiastic and supportive customer base that shapes our work as farmers.
