Company description

We are a low-till certified organic farm in Canby, Oregon. We intensively cultivate 1 acre of land and we distribute our produce via two markets, our CSA and restaurants.
It is my passion to turn our small space into an oasis of food, animals, insects, and people. The farm is where I feel good and where I hope that you will as well. We eat our lunch together, share our life goals with each other, and we empower one another to be our best selves.
