The Farm


This past weekend we went out to Sun Gold Farms for a chance to see the place where they grow the fruits and veggies for our CSA.  It's out near Forest Grove about an hour from our house.  



Many people had a hard time following these simple directions:



Much to Sara's dismay, folks were traipsing around on the fields.




These birdhouses were occupied by swallows.



Here's one of the greenhouses.  It was filled with tomato plants.  They even had hanging tomato plants.



Flowers in another green house.



One of our favorite veggies.  We can't wait to pick up our first box from the farm next week!


If any of you are thinking of joining a CSA - do it!  It is a great way to support farmers and a sustainable food supply.  Getting our box each week has encouraged us to eat more fruit and veggies and try things we normally wouldn't purchase in a store.  We love the farm!

  1. I love that Greg does interviews with you on video. Classic Q and A. Chris does the same thing to me.

  2. Great review of the farm. I just picked up my 2nd CSA box for this summer - cauliflower, beets, chard and other yummies.
