Farm Happenings at Cedarville Farm
Farm Happenings for August 18, 2021
Greetings Friends: Was it just a dream that we had rain last week end? Walking through the woods down to the farm, the soil was moist and there was glistening in the foliage of the trees. The entire garden was shimmering and the soil dark; a loamy, life affirming fragrance teased the senses.1 read more »
Farm Happenings for August 11, 2021
Greetings:
An old bit of farmer wisdom states that a half inch of rainfall is equal to a full inch of irrigation (that is, water the farmer pumps onto their fields from a well or pond) ~ and it's true. The garden today is glowing with the sweet and mysterious kiss of natural moisture, with vi1 read more »
Farm Happenings for August 4, 2021
Hi, Friends:
We awoke this morning to the eerie golden light of smoke infused skies. A scratchy throat confirms that the conflagrations burning to the east and north of us are bleeding smoke our way. We don't expect this to impact either our harvest work or the quality of the vege1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 28, 2021
Greetings from the farm. We are enjoying these long summer days and the delicious harvests they are supporting. Weeds have ignited all over the farm, but between our burly cultivating tractors and our even burlier cultivating crew we are keeping them humbled, at least enough to snatch many bu1 read more »

Farm Happenings for July 14, 2021
Ahhh, summer, as one has come to expect it: highs in the high 70's / low 80's, coolish nights, irrigating because the crops simply need water, not because they are burning up in the searing air of a heat dome. We are pleased to find the garden in mostly good health after the inferno two1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 7, 2021
We are still reeling a bit from last week's heat storm which torched this little farm with 104 and 106 degree highs on Monday and Tuesday respectively. We irrigated everything we could during the worst of the heat, including the greenhouse tomatoes and peppers using overhead sprinklers and ti1 read more »
Farm Happenings for June 30, 2021
We have a great selection of crops for you this week, if only we can avoid spontaneous combustion while picking them for you! In our 35+ years of farming we have experience several heat waves, but usually they were of short duration with highs only just touching 100 degrees. Friday we were in1 read more »
Farm Happenings for June 23, 2021
Busy at the farm, driven by long days and rapid growth of crops and weeds. Received a new pump in time to irrigate by week's end only to have our main line hydrant blow up. Easy enough to repair: dig a massive hole, cut out the busted portion and glue in the new, wait 12 hours for the glue to1 read more »
About the farm
Cedarville Farm is a mid sized mixed vegetable farm, cultivating gravelly and fertile soil near Nugent's Corner, 12 miles NE of Bellingham. We grow our crops organically, maintaining soil health with the use of animal, plant, and rock based fertilizers and cover crops. We offered the first CSA north of Seattle in 1992 and have never stopped packing boxes and loving this way of linking local consumers with local farms.
