This Saturday, August 23, join us for a CSA potluck here at the farm! We’ll begin to gather after 5 pm with the goal of finally digging in to the food by 6 pm.
If you arrive earlier, we can partake of some lemonade and/or wine, walk the fields, and visit. And if you arrive much later, that’s fine too! We’ll have plenty of green leafy salad and bread, but please bring a dish to share: main dish, side dish, beverage, dessert, etc. Also, if you can, please bring your own plate and utensils to use — we have extra but not enough for everyone, and we’d like to avoid using disposable!
For an extra special treat, folks from another CSA, 47th Avenue Farm, will be joining us for dinner. Many people associated with that farm will be on the island brainstorming with farmer Laura Masterson as she begins to develop the property she purchased just down the road from us. So, if you come out, you’ll have the opportunity to visit with us as well as other folks from another great farm in the area!
Also: the blackberries are ripe! Bring a container and pick from our hedge!
We hope to see you here! Please call us if you have questions: 503-474-7661.
Directions to farm: Head east out of Mac on Hwy-18. Turn right (south) onto Lafayette Hwy. Turn left (east) onto Fairview Rd (there will be a sign for Hauer of the Dauen winery). Stay on Fairview as it crosses Hwy 221-Wallace Rd, at which point Fairview will turn into Grand Island Rd. Stay on Grand Island Rd as it crosses the bridge. Turn right at the first intersection (there will be grapevines on your left & a cherry orchard on the right), onto Upper Island Rd. Our property is the second on the left — we have a gravel driveway we share with our neighbors. We’ll have signs to direct you to parking & the fields. Please be respectful of our neighbors as you come & go!
