About Us

Come join us for a hands-on class, interactive workshop, skill share, or community swap. We are nestled on a dreamy little acre just outside of Phoenix, Oregon with a great view of Mt. Ashland and Wagner Butte. Our organically and naturally farmed silty loam soil nurtures teaching gardens featuring a buffet of edible plants, herbal medicines, Northwest native plants, and pollinator gardens.

Inspired by the work of Masanobu Fukuoka, Rowen White, and Elaine Ingham, we have cultivated a naturally farmed food forest specializing in holistic horticultural education, super-select organic plants, and boutique handmade products. Our urban mini-farm hosts a refurbished barn turned school-house and a commercial-quality propagation greenhouse, which serve as a venue for classes, skill sharing, and gatherings of all kinds.

Come experience something new, and walk-away with something you learned to make yourself.
