About
Located on the northeast flank of Mt. Hood, Tumbleweed Farm grows clean vegetables for our CSA, farmers market and restaurants.
In 2012, Andrea and Taylor purchased 6 acres of land in beautiful Parkdale, Oregon and named it Tumbleweed Farm--an ode to the wanderlust life they'd previously lived throughout their twenty's. Tumbleweed has been the biggest undertaking of their lives and they have been tested in more ways than they could have imagined. However, between the endless hours of working the land, producing food, and cultivating a community of customers, they've somehow found a rhythm and good routine.
They love growing with the farm seasons-- learning, trying new things and most of all, growing delicious, organic veggies for their CSA, local farmers markets, restaurants, and of course, Andrea's evening cooking.

Farming Practices
To build and maintain our fertile soil we use compost, organic fertilizers, livestock rotations and cover cropping.
We pride ourselves in growing the cleanest and safest food possible. To do this we do not use sprays of any kind. Instead we control our weeds using mechanical cultivation, hoes, hands and flames. We minimize pest issues by rotating our crops and using row covers.
