Pastures of Plenty, in Boulder County, Colorado, is a 35-acre organic vegetable, herb and cut flower farm. We host events and dish up catering by 'Plenty.'
Founded in 1993 by Farmer Lyle Davis and wife Sylvia Tawse, Pastures of Plenty is an extension of the way the couple lives their lives; sustainably-focused and deliciously. As one of the original founders of Boulder's Alfalfa's Market, Lyle came to farming by way of his years running the produce department. Consistently searching out and sourcing local and organic fruits and vegetables fueled Lyle's interest in farming.
On Pastures of Plenty's 35-acres, Lyle grows over 75 varieties of organic flowers and dozens of varieties of heirloom vegetables. In addition to running the family farm, Lyle is also the chef of Big Bang Catering. Pastures of Plenty is where Big Bang Catering grows and sources its food.
True commitment to great food begins with the first link in the food chain — the growers. With locally-grown fresh flowers, vegetables and herbs harvested from our farm just for local farmers' markets, our CSA members, or on-farm events, we are able to create sustainable links to the food system for our customers.
The great Woody Gutherie wrote "Pastures of Plenty" to make a point about farming conditions post-Dust Bowl; Lyle works to create an example of how sustainable farming choices can alter the future of our food system and communities.
