Bob and Judy became
involved in organic farming after Judy inherited the house and land from her
Aunt. It was part of what had been a dairy farm since the early fifties
when her Aunt and Uncle brought their herd from Arizona. They were proud to
be a Carnation Dairy. The dairy ceased operations in the sixties and the
herd was sold. The land was used occasionally for grazing and some was
leased for crop growing until the eighties when it went fallow until 1999. A
lone heifer was the sole occupant until 2002 when Bob and Judy planted their
first crop to determine if the land was suitable for farming. They
discovered it was very rich and tillable land. The crop was given away in
2002 and 2003 while experimenting. They decided to obtain an organic
certification and go into the farming business. They are looking forward to
their third year of offering organic vegetables, herbs and flowers at their
community supported agriculture (CSA). Honey will also be available but
can’t be labeled organic due to certification distance issues.
