Muscovy Ducks and Pullets Help Complete the Cycle.  BMB recycles duck and chicken by-products to feed and nurture the compost pile. The compost pile feeds the dahlias, fruit trees, black currants and the other produce grown at the BMB. The ducks and chickens produce tasty eggs, the harvest inspires delicious meals created by inventive NYC chefs.

The Black Meadow Barn has an annual flower sale. A behavior research study conducted by Nancy Etoff, PHD., of Harvard Medical School, reveals that people feel more compassionate towards others, have less anxiety and feel less depressed when fresh cut flowers are in the home.

Dinner plate dahlias have been cultivated by Bankemper for 15 years. They are an aesthetic staple at BMB.

Environmental and economic sustainability are core values of Black Meadow Barn's philosophy.
