We started harvest last week, and the fruit looks fantastic! After a successful weekend of Farmers Markets under our belts and the start-up kinks working out, we are well into the 2012 harvest season!
Harvest is right around the corner!
We’re just a few short weeks away from the 2012 Harvest! The crop looks great, the weather is cooperating, and we’ve got our new interns starting to get a taste of life on a blueberry farm – it’s going to be a great season! After a recent trip to Eugene, Oregon (blueberry country!), and a stroll around their beautiful Farmers Market, we are getting excited to get started. Keep posted for updates!
We’re Hiring for Summer Harvest Positions
We are looking for energetic interns to work on our farm and at farmer’s markets during the 2012 harvest season (May-August). Do you have an interest in working on an established certified organic farm, in a beautiful part of California surrounded by miles of forests? The season is short, the hours are long, the days are hot, but the nearby crystal clear creeks help wash the dust off, and housing can be provided. We are currently taking applications (resume + letter of interest) for paid internships for the 2012 season; these positions involve managing the harvest crew, oversight of packing crew, quality control and logistics. Contact us for more information.
Inspiring Young Help!
Danny, Dustin, Matt, & Frankie have hit the ground running – our young farm helpers have successfully accomplished a fantastic start to what promises to be a great season! Thanks, Guys!!!
And We’re Off!!
Harvest has finally begun, about 2 1/2 weeks late. Good news is that the fruit tastes fantastic, and there is a lot! Check back for market news!
Picking Has Started!
Harvest Season has finally begun! It’s been a wet, lush year up here on the ridge, and we are just now seeing some ripening berries! The fruit is plentiful, the plants are growing well, and we look forward to another bountiful harvest! We successfully dodged the frost season this year, thanks to our fairly new frost protection sprinkler system, and some fantastic neighbors who helped watched the farm and the frost alarm while we were on our recent trip to Panama.
