Farm Happenings for September 14, 2021
Hi there folks,
Writing to you as I see very soft rain fall--what a relief. Unfortunately, it's not a very meaningful amount of rain for our crops, but the animals seems to be enjoying the cooler, and wetter air. We've been feeding lots of leftover apples, squash, and other treats to the chickens a1 read more »

Hi there CSA Members,
Well, we've made it to September! At the farm, we're through with seeding and planting in the field. Time to let it grow and harvest, harvest, harvest. This week's box brings some favorites back along with a new item; shishito peppers. We ended up having a really rough pepper1 read more »
Farm Happenings for August 24, 2021
Hi CSA Members,
We're now just over the halfway mark for box distributions! You've got plenty of more vegetables coming, our last box will be the last week of October, but its sort of hard for me to believe that the summer has gone by that quickly. This week features many of the same summer fa1 read more »
Farm Happenings for August 17, 2021
Hi CSA Members,
Hope everyone is managing to hang in there with the heat. Apologies for the late delivery notice last week. I had it all set up, and then forgot to click the go button. Whoops. We've been trying our best to keep our work days shorter when we can, water everything and everybody, and1 read more »

Farm Happenings for August 3, 2021
Hi CSA-ers,
This week on the farm brings a big push of weeding and the last couple of direct seeding rounds as the summer hits its height. We mainly manage weed with long handled tools, but occasionally have to get in there and pull things by hand. We try to avoid hand weeding, it is hard on1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 27, 2021
Good morning from the farm!
We've finally finished up all the winter and fall seeding and planting--what a relief. It's strange to think that the broccoli and cabbage we planted in the heat will make it through and thrive when the cooler months eventually get to us, but every year they seem to take1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 20, 2021
Welcome to Week 6!The rest of July (and the beginning of August) is a lot of re-planting, mowing, and the final weeding of many of our longer crops. Believe it or not, we're close to being at the top of the season--which means we're slowly starting to see shorter days, and the cycle of weeds slow d1 read more »
About the farm
Located in the foothills of Mt Rainier, Pink Moon Farm grows mixed vegetables for CSA and market. We integrate our flocks of laying hens and Icelandic sheep to maximize soil health and reduce off farm inputs. The farm uses organic practices, and actively works to give back to the community through work-shares, community boxes, and CSA discounts. See our webpage for details.
