Healthy soil means more nutritious food for our community! This spring at our Heritage Farm location, 500 yards of organic compost was spread across 5 acres, boosting soil health. Thanks to Dirt Hugger, and a grant from the Sustainable Farms & Fields program in partnership with Clark Conservation District.

“Good Food Available for All” is the heart and soul of local grower, Heidi Zimmerman’s, work at Heidi’s Fancy Goods. A lifelong steward of the land, Heidi comes from a long line of organic farmers.

“Good Food Available for All” is the heart and soul of local grower, Heidi Zimmerman’s, work at Heidi’s Fancy Goods. A lifelong steward of the land, Heidi comes from a long lineage of organic farmers. That legacy is palpable the moment you step onto her farm in Amboy, WA, where regeneration, sustainability, and reverence for the earth shape every aspect of her practice.

Last week, we officially welcomed a New Holland Work Master 70 tractor to the CCFB farm—made possible by a generous donation in honor of Barb and Woody Woods. Their family, including daughter Cheryl, granddaughter, and two great-grandkids joined us to celebrate this special moment.

With spring in full swing, we're planting the seeds for another abundant season at Heritage Farm! This year, all 11 acres will be in production, growing a vibrant mix of fresh produce, including corn, carrots, winter squash, cabbage, peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, Ananas melons, pumpkins, eggplant, and green beans. Over the next few weeks, more than 2,500 plant starts will go into the ground, allowing us to begin harvesting earlier from our mixed veggie field.
