It is important to us that our family eat quality food, and that’s what we want to share with you. All our animals are raised on pasture and fed only organic or high quality mineral feeds. Our egg laying chickens are always on green pasture with acres to roam and fed organic feed mixes. Because…

Mother’s Day weekend, May 2021 Our farm season is kicking off nicely – but that means a few adjustments! Our farm egg-cooler will be going away for the summer! Beginning in June eggs will be available on-farm at our farm shop and at our market table. We’ll be at the Duvall Farmer’s Market, located again…

Welcome to 2021! We’ve taken our break to recover from the hard work done in 2020 and our bodies are waking up to another great growing season. We were able to take our family down to New Mexico to check in on Grandpa in January. He was happy to get out of his house! We…

September 21, 2020 Wow! Where did the month go!!! I have a few great pictures to share. We had a what felt like a forever smoke blanket over us, and then with a whoosh and an end to our summer drought it was gone…and just like that it was fall! This past weekend we celebrated…

We had a little thunderstorm blow through at the end of an extreme heat day here in the Snoqualmie Valley. The lighting after the storm was extraordinary! I attempted to get a good picture of our market garden in the special sunset light, but I don’t think I really captured the beauty of our market…
