About Us
“Blue Dog Farm is a producer of salad mixes and leafy greens at Mt Mee in the Moreton Bay Region.
The first forkful of Really Fancy Salad is a revelation! Seasonal and local, this bright, sweet, nutty and bitter blend of a dozen traditional salad leaves, herbs and microgreens is the kind of flavourful goodness that your body knows is good. It makes sense: organic and biodynamic practices mean the crops synthesize a broad range of compounds that are beneficial to our health.
Try a bowl of Really Fancy Salad, and find out for yourself!
Background
Jacki has always grown food, on balconies, backyards and community plots. When Blue Dog Farm began it was time to put roots down and she and her family moved to Mt Mee. Her children grew up playing among the pea trellises while she dug, sowed and harvested.
Now, 14 years and 20 tonnes of salad later, Blue Dog Farm still enjoys a supply chain that is just a hands grasp wide!

At night plants trade with fungi and bacteria – they exude sugars from their root tips in exchange for minerals that are passed along the mycelium highway from metres away.”
