Our neighbor gifted us this baby pitaya — aka dragon fruit, and on this rainy day She’s getting special treatment as the very first plant we move into the greenhouse. Every plant in this space will have a name and a purpose. Joyce is already climbing gracefully up the twisted madrone branch we attached by the big window just for her.
The greenhouse isn’t quite finished yet, but that didn’t stop us from bringing Joyce in early. We’re a little nervous she might not make it through a Santa Cruz winter, but this beauty deserves the best shot at thriving. We drink pitaya almost daily in our liver detox smoothies, so growing our own would be incredibly special.
Pitaya is pure plant power and loaded with antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. It helps support digestion, hydration, and liver health, and is known to calm inflammation and boost that skin glow from the inside out.
One day soon, we’ll be blending Joyce’s vibrant fruit straight from the greenhouse to the cup. Until then, she’s settling into her cozy new home where she will be warm, protected, and surrounded by love.
Recipe:
Ingredients:
2 bananas
½ cup fresh, 1 pack frozen, or 2 tablespoons powdered dragon fruit powder1 cup Wymanns wild blueberry
½ cup coconut water
Blend and enjoy

In 2013, after my own health scare, I began a deep journey into holistic healing, one rooted in intention, nature, and the body’s innate ability to repair itself. That experience shaped everything we do today at Bird Valley Organics.
We just shared something very close to our hearts: “Healing with Intention: A Holistic Guide to Supporting the Body Through Illness.”
This piece is about more than remedies, it’s about approaching healing with awareness, alignment, and the belief that wellness begins from within. Whether you or someone you love is navigating illness, these tools and practices are meant to empower and guide.
Read the full guide now on our blog and share it with someone who needs this reminder. ❤️

Our bodies are equipped with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) a vast network of receptors that regulate mood, sleep, inflammation, immunity, memory, and more. Every time you consume cannabis, cannabinoids like THC and CBD interact with this system, nudging it toward balance (a state called homeostasis).
THC can reduce inflammation, improve mood, stimulate appetite, and ease pain - even if your goal was simply to feel more relaxed after work.
CBD calms the nervous system, protects brain cells, and supports immune balance - whether you’re aware of it or not.
This means that even “recreational” use is activating your body’s healing mechanisms.
You may not have set out to “treat” anything, but the plant is still doing its work. Viewing cannabis only through the “medical” or “recreational” lens limits our understanding. This plant offers an integrated experience body, mind, and spirit.

There’s something special about eating food you grew yourself, especially when it traveled with you from one farm to the next.
These nopales came from cactus we brought with us from our old farm in Watsonville, and today, they became lunch.
Earthy, tangy, and nourishing, they’re more than just delicious — they’re medicine. High in fiber, anti-inflammatory, and supportive of blood sugar balance.
Recipe: Cast Iron Nopales
Ingredients:
2-3 fresh nopales (cactus paddles), cleaned and de-spined
2 cloves of fresh garlic, thinly sliced
Juice of 1 lime
Sea salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Olive oil, for cooking and finishing.

Directions:
Rinse and pat dry. Scrape off any remaining spines or rough edges.
Slice each paddle into strips or leave whole, depending on your preference.
Heat the pan and add a small splash of olive oil to coat the surface.
Warm your cast iron skillet at high heat.
Add the sliced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30–60 seconds, just until fragrant and golden (not burned).
Push the garlic to the side or remove it temporarily to prevent overcooking.
Place the nopales in the cast iron pan and let them sear for 4–5 minutes per side, until they develop a nice char and soften.
Stir the garlic back in if you set it aside.
Remove from heat, squeeze fresh lime juice over the nopales, and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Drizzle with a bit more olive oil for that luscious finish.
Recipe and benefits are up on the blog — go check it out!”

On this , we honor the living systems that sustain us — the soil beneath our feet, the forests that breathe for us, the fungi that feed the roots, and the waters that move life forward.
This calendula flower, blooming in our garden, is more than beautiful — it’s medicine, pollinator food, and a symbol of what happens when we let nature lead. 🌼
At Bird Valley, we live by one rule: give more than we take.
That means farming regeneratively, composting, building with salvaged materials, foraging with respect, and growing food and medicine in harmony with the Earth.
And the good news? You don’t need land to make a difference.
Here are a few simple ways we’re reducing our impact — and you can too:
🌍Bring your own jars or bags and buy in bulk instead of packaged goods
🌍Choose glass or reusable containers over plastic
🌍Swap paper towels for washable cloths
🌍Thrift instead of buying new — it’s better for the planet and your style
🌍Compost your kitchen scraps — even a countertop bin helps
🌍Support local, organic, and regenerative farms
🌍Grow a few herbs or veggies — a sunny windowsill is all you need 🌍 compost your Bird Valley FSO box when finished
Every small step adds up — just like every calendula seed planted becomes something bright, healing, and alive. 🌍💚

This week, we opened up our carefully saved bags of seeds — each one gathered by hand from the strongest, most vibrant plants in our old Watsonville garden. These seeds carry stories: of abundance, resilience, and the generosity of a garden that gave more than it took.
We’re a little late getting seeds in the ground this year — but that’s okay. What matters most is how we grow.
This season, we’re planting with intention — using our own seeds and, for the first time, compost we’ve been patiently tending. It’s finally breaking down into rich, living soil — another closed loop, feeding the future from the past.
This is regenerative farming in action. Saving seeds, reducing waste, building soil, and letting the land teach us what thrives.
Whether you’ve got a balcony or a backyard, growing from your own seeds and compost is one of the most powerful steps toward food sovereignty and sustainability.
Every seed we plant today is a thank you to the plant that came before it. 🌱

Curious minds are our favorite kind.
At Bird Valley, we believe education is part of the medicine. Here are some of the most common questions we get—and informed, experience-based answers to support your wellness path:
Can I give it to my pet?
Yes. Our high-CBD oil is clean with pet-safe ingredients and may support mobility, calm, and general wellness in animals. Dosage should be based on weight and condition—always start small and observe how your pet responds.

Will it get me high?
No. Our formulas contain high levels of CBD and only trace amounts of THC (below 0.3%), staying well under the threshold that causes psychoactivity. They’re designed for those seeking therapeutic effects without the “high.”

How should I store my FSO?
Store your oil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to preserve cannabinoid integrity and potency. A pantry or medicine cabinet works great.

How much do I use?
We recommend starting with a grain-of-rice-sized amount, especially for full-spectrum oils. This provides a gentle, effective entry point—particularly for those new to FSO. Every body is different, start low, go slow, and listen to your system.

Can I use it during the day?
Yes. Our Anytime Relief oil supports calm focus and balanced energy throughout the day. For evening use, formulas with higher THC content or relaxing terpenes are more appropriate such as Rest Relief oil. We encourage tuning into your body’s rhythm.

Can it help during cancer treatment?
While we cannot make medical claims, many clients choose our Body Relief FSO during cancer care to support quality of life. Its full-spectrum cannabinoid profile may help ease pain, inflammation, appetite loss, and restlessness.Pairing this oil with our High-CBD blend and a whole foods diet can complement a holistic approach. As always, consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Still have questions?Drop them in the comments, DM us, or reach out through our website’s Contact page. You’ll hear directly from us—because when you understand what you're taking, you heal with more confidence and intention.

Hi, I’m Terry—and together with my partner Manny, we built Bird Valley Organics with our hands in the soil and our hearts wide open.
What began in 2011 as a bold move from Florida—with our 4 dogs, a cat, a few seeds of hope, and a deep desire to live closer to nature—has grown into something far greater than we imagined. After six years of farming in Watsonville, we returned to our original land in the redwoods, where we’re now rebuilding a regenerative farm rooted in healing, learning, and connection.
Whether we’re teaching others how to build living soil, or sharing our story at vendor days, this work is more than a job—it’s our passion. We love getting our hands dirty, guiding others, and advocating for the power of plants and the health of the land.
At Bird Valley, everything is grown with intention. No shortcuts. No chemicals. Our Full-Spectrum Oil (FSO) is at the heart of what we do. Crafted from regeneratively grown cannabis, it captures the full range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and healing compounds the plant has to offer. Whether you’re adding to food, applying it topically, or shared with your pets, our FSO supports the body gently and powerfully—helping to ease pain, calm the nervous system, support sleep, reduce inflammation, and restore balance.
When you support Bird Valley Organics you’re standing behind a regenerative mission, a family farm, and a belief that true healing comes from the ground up.
We’re so grateful to grow with you. 🌱
