Down on the Farm

A couple of months ago, Paul started an ambitious project. He created an urban farm with the mission of feeding hungry people in Tacoma. That would be us. From these humble beginnings a super food production enterprise has been created. We salute Paul as one of the successful family farmers that this great country, America, was founded by. We thank you Paul and America thanks you.

Just dirt:



Little sprouts:



Man we sure do love this sun:



An amazing crop explosion:



Ahhhhhh harvest time:



Safely protected in climate controlled environment. Most would say, look at all that lettuce, isn't it cool??? Well I can tell you, during our current heatwave in the 90s, all that lettuce is taking up valuable PBR space. So come Monday night & help the cause & your reward will be some lovely Tacoma grown lettuce. How environmentally friendly can you be? The delivery vehicle is a mini that has only driven 1.8 miles. That's less fossil fuels than you would burn going to the store!
