COMMUNITY GARDEN MEMBERSHIP
What does garden membership look like?
-
Open Garden Hours several times a week for gardening and playing at the farm. We are very kid-friendly. Babies welcome, too! (No pets, please.)
-
Gardening in community - we share the space (rather than individual plots) and help each other!
-
Events/gatherings - many free, some with a small fee to help cover expenses.
-
Vegetables, fruit, flowers and eggs for your table!
-
Guidance from Farmers Erica and Sandy as well as other fellow gardeners
-
Membership cost: Tiered pricing of $20/$60/$100/year per household. See membership form for more details.

For those for whom cost may be a concern, please speak with our farmers for alternative options!

GROWING COMMUNITY
Our farm community consists of campers ranging in age from 3 to 18, church and school groups, and families, friends, and neighbors!
When we come together to
garden and eat, we learn more
about one another, the land,
and life on the earth we all share.
TENDING THE EARTH
As we tend our farm, we look to nature as model. How might we best work WITH nature to produce foods that honor our bodies as well as the soils and streams? How can we be sensitive to the needs and health of our livestock, our wild creatures, our habitats, AND ourselves?
CULTIVATING FAITH
A garden can be a place of learning, solace, friendship,
growth, and renewal.
We hope that our farm will offer you
a place to experience more of God’s love within the context of creation.
