Leenda Painting at the River on 5/15/2018


It is amazing that we were able to get in the river and swim this early. River was low, and not too cold. Leenda created this beautiful painting.



Jepson and Buster on 4/22/2018


It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood, so Jepson took a chair into the middle of the upper field and had a long sit. His trusty friend Buster joined him. A lovely sight the two of them make!


Truffles! Found by Gucci on 3/29/2018

Marilyn and Tammy brought their dogs Gucci and Blue to the farm to hunt for truffles. Gucci is a national champion truffle dog. She was amazing and found several Oregon black truffles and at least one Oregon white truffle, even though we were at the tail end of the season. Here is a link to an article about Gucci:

We infused Swiss cheese, goat cheese, butter, and eggs with the truffles. We had scrambled eggs with cheese, bagels with goat cheese, and popcorn with truffle butter. Yummy!
