About the Farm
Background
Vibrant Valley Farm has established itself as a hub for both local and global food system innovation. Known for its dedication to ancient traditions in food cultivation and land connection, the farm has also become a cornerstone in community engagement. By partnering with local schools and projects, they have created mentorship programs and green job training opportunities, fostering healthier communities.
Practices
The farm honors ancient agricultural traditions while integrating modern practices to sustain the land. Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a key component, allowing the farm to purchase essentials like seeds, tools, and amendments at the beginning of the season. This approach ensures that the produce remains local, seasonal, and fresh. Additionally, the farm collaborates with Lonesome Rock Ranch to offer humanely raised beef, and provides other add-ons such as flowers, honey, eggs, preserves, and wine made from on-site grapes.
The Rest
Participants in the CSA program receive a weekly newsletter filled with recipes, photos, and updates from the farm. The farm also offers indigo dyeing classes and various collaborations in textile production. Their farm shop features CSA shares, produce, flowers, and hard goods. Vibrant Valley Farm emphasizes food safety with stringent sanitation protocols to protect both customers and farmers.
