Home Farm



It's June, again, in Oregon. I live on a home farm in a sleepy neighborhood nestled into NE Portland called "Cully."  Here are a couple of snapshots from the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)  Home Farm where I live.  The farmers, Brendon and Lilly (and friends), just launched their first "official" CSA season.

The land is owned by a wonderful family who’ve planted pear, peach, and apple trees, and blueberries, marionberries, raspberries, and grapes, as well as many varieties of flowering plants. It’s a little oasis in the city where every month or so, live music drifts out of the music barn and into the evening sky for the pleasure of those nearby.
