We’ve built a commercial kitchen which will debut in 2013 producing beer and other value added products. Looking for someone interested in learning all elements of a multi-faceted farm. Hard work, low pay, eat well, and beer at the end of the day. Walk out of here with knowledge. Need to be a self-starter, hard worker, be someone who can be a team player as well as solo artist.

We are excited about starting the shares this season!  We will begin this Saturday, June 16 and for those with a Tuesday pick up, that will be on June 19th.  The season is starting slowly, as you can imagine, with the crazy weather we have been having.  We will have an explosion of strawberries and early spring vegetables like lettuce, kale, swiss chard and spinach and we’ll be building momentum as the season rolls on.  I’ll be sending out menus with suggestions on what to do with what is coming your way on Wednesdays.

So stay tuned.  We’ve got a lot growing on here.  Hope to see you on June 21st at our summer solstice party, too.

See you soon!

Little Eorthe Farm is about more than preserving farmland.  It’s about more than providing fresh, organic, locally grown produce to the residents of Western Pierce County.  It’s about more than passing on knowledge and philosophy to the next generation.  Little Eorthe Farm is about all of these things, but more than anything, Little Eorthe Farm is about revolutionizing the food system in this country – replacing our current petroleum-based, transportation-heavy, inorganic, inhumane (and let’s face it – short sighted, cruel, greedy and idiotic) factory farm system with all local, all organic, all humane farming procedures and practices.

The implications of a truly sustainable food system are universal, and they include a decrease in dependence on fossil fuels, foreign and domestic, a decrease in corporate control and a commensurate increase in the power of individual citizens, less pollution, a healthier environment, the list goes on and on.

Sound good?  Get involved!

How can you be a part of making our world a healthier place to live?

  • Come see us and buy our locally grown fresh produce at the Proctor Farmers’ Market (We never sell anything we don’t produce ourselves – neither does anyone else at the Proctor Market!)
  • Become a Little Eorthe Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shareholder
  • Volunteer at Little Eorthe Farm – there’s always lots to do, and it’s fun!
  • Are you more serious about learning farming and helping to re-naturalize our world?  Become an intern!

If you have any questions or are interested in making a difference, contact us at info@littleeorthe.org or call Carrie Little at 253-576-8950.

Please note: This is the Seattle Times’ video player, so it’s ad supported and we’ve noticed some performance problems.

It’s March, the weather is wild–coming in with both lions and lambs, literally, and things are getting a bit busy around the farm.  The newly completed greenhouse is sprouting with all kinds of starts for the new season.  We’re expecting chicks, turkeys, alpacas, piglets, and yes lambs, not necessarily in any order,  oh my!

Big thanks to our returning subscribers to the Little Eorthe Farm CSA!  We’re hoping to hear from the rest of you soon!  We could sure use your help!  If you haven’t sent your sign-up sheet back yet, please do so by April 1st.  There will only be 30 shares offered this year so if you know anyone else who’d be interested in signing up, please let us know.  They’re going fast!

And lastly, if you haven’t been reminded lately, we’re hosting our first big event of the season on Saturday, March 19!  Join us for the 2nd Annual Kite Flying Festival spectacular!  We’ll be sharing a potluck meal and sampling some new beers of the season!  Join us anytime after 1pm!

Hope to see you all soon!

Your friends at Little Eorthe Farm
