Heritage and Pride in Community Supported Ag
Grow Local is owned by Tim and Kathy Edwards. The Edwards family has owned and run a farm in Oregon since 1986. Their business goal is to provide delicious organic produce to CSA members and help educate people about agriculture and the environment. CSA groups promote local agriculture and help encourage a more direct farmer- to-consumer relationship. This also increases overall public awareness of the local agricultural economy.
Grow Local wants to give people opportunities to learn all about organic and sustainable agriculture on a real working farm by hosting monthly workshops. Becky (The Edwards' daughter, upper left) is happy to talk to people about soil and plant health. Visit the seasonal info page and check the calendar for upcoming events!
