We are a 39-acre farm and forest located 35 miles east of Portland, near Sandy, OR. We raise pastured animals for a small CSA, are planting a 3.5-acre food forest/orchard, and hosting visiting campers. We are looking for a farmer to bring an additional complimentary enterprise into the current ecosystem: maybe a fruit tree or native plant nursery, a pastured animal (chicken, duck, geese, sheep, goat, hog) business, visitor experiences, classes, or something else? Our collaborative consists of 3-4 independent tiny households that share workspaces, a homestead garden and greenhouses, fun, and occasional meals. Please contact us at scrumpyforestfarm@gmail.com for more information.
continue to rehabilitate soil, water, mineral, and energy systems; grow a multi-layered food forest/orchard system; regenerate and build silvopastures through intensive rotational grazing and careful timed plantings; rewild the forest ecosystem; build a thriving farm community
