Cedar Rock Farm

The 2018 season begins!

The hoop house and the open garden are being cleaned up and ready for planting. Seeds are being sprouted in the small greenhouse. Compost is being turned and mixed. Stay tuned for more news as the 2018 season begins.

#Fall has fallen! The rains have come, and the arrival of #autumn cannot be denied.

In another time of year, when winter breathes its last gasps, we say spring has sprung. But this is not that time. In a year when spring barely sprang and summer came late, delaying the start of the start of the harvestable season, the warm weather and dry days appear to have left us for the year. The rains have come, heralding the arrival of autumn. Fall has fallen. What does this mean for Cedar…

Thank you to everyone who made our summer at #WestLinn's street market so great! #Oregon

The West Linn Summer Street Market has closed for the season, and we couldn’t be more proud to have been a part of it! Since the end of May, Cedar Rock Farm has set up shop at the market every Wednesday. It was a remarkable opportunity with which to get to know our neighbors better. We built relationships with customers, fellow farmers and entrepreneurs, the kids who participated in the PoP…

Reminder: We're at the #FarmersMarket in #WestLinn every Wednesday! Come say hello! #Oregon

Last Wednesday, Cedar Rock Farm set up a table at the opening day of West Linn’s Summer Market, and we’re pleased to say it was a great experience! We were a little nervous, as this year’s shift in weather patterns caused a delay in the start of our season. But we were encouraged to have a presence at the market right from the start in order to support the incredible Power of Produce program, or…

Can’t make it out to our farm stand? West Linn’s “Wednesdays in Willamette” Summer Street Market is one place you can find Cedar Rock Farm this season!

Located in the historic Willamette neighborhood, the market opens Wednesday, May 31st, and runs through August 31st. We’ll have a table set up all summer, so we hope you come say hello! It’s a great opportunity to check out locally farmed goods, and to become more connected with both your community and the food on your table.

We’ve partnered with the Summer Street Market to bring fresh groceries to West Linn via our Community Supported Agriculture subscriptions. We’ll be bringing subscribers a delivery of goods each week after the start of the CSA season, which they can pick up at our table at the market!

Not only that, the market is a family activity with a twist specifically designed to encourage kids to have an interest in healthy food and where it comes from. The Summer Street Market will be participating in a program called PoP, short for Power of Produce. According to the West Linn Tidings, PoP originated in Oregon City and “aims to empower kids by providing free tokens each week and allowing them to make their own food selections.”

Like Community Supported Agriculture, the market is also a time to learn about what challenges farmers face. Don’t see that particular fruit, vegetable, or herb that you were hoping for? Well, it might not be in season yet. The prolonged cold this unusual winter and spring brought us has impacted most local farms. Don’t worry; we’ll still be at the market with the goods we have available, and we’ll be taking sign-ups for our remaining few CSA subscriptions! This year’s weather does mean, however, that we’ve had to push our CSA start date back — customers will now begin receiving boxes on June 21st.

The Summer Street Market is located on Willamette Falls Drive, between 13th St and 14th St. in West Linn. You can find out more information about the market at HistoricWillamette.com or on their Facebook page.
