So happy to be harvesting the first crops on the new land! French breakfast radishes, mesclun mix and arugula at their finest. Find these Spring treats @farmstandlocalfoods and @farmsandmarket starting next week. #firstcrops2018 #marketgarden #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

In case you needed a little pick me up. #goldenretrieverpuppies #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

All this rain created a seasonal wetland in the low spot on the farm. Willow loves it! Thankful we aren’t flooding yet and for the break in the rain today. It would be really cool to plant out this low spot with natives and create a funcional wetland again. #farmingwithnature #pnw #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

First run with the paperpot transplanter!!! Also the first time tranplanting with one hand and videotaping myself! Definitely a learning curve but I’m pretty stoked on it so far. The tunnels are planted out. Green onions, beets, spinach, snap peas and cilantro in the ground. #paperpottransplanter #farmupgrades #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

Cutworms=Chicken food! I noticed some of the new lettuce and bok choi transplants in the ground were shriveled. Then I found these monsters around the base. Cutworms are a new one for me, hopefully just by handpicking I can get these guys under control! #newground #newchallenges #organicfarming #radiclerootsfarm

What a beautiful day, potted up tomatoes and planted some lettuce and bok choi in the greenhouse. Less than a month till the first market! #springishere #snohomishfarmersmarket #supportlocal #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

Willow and the two new tunnels. #tunnelvision #farmersfriendllc #goldenretrieverpuppy #rain #spring #pnw #snohomish #radiclerootsfarm

Follow Your Food: Radicle Roots

Last Thursday I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon at Radicle Roots. As I had written in my recipe for Chicken Larb, Radicle Roots is a small, but very productive, sustainable market garden just outside of Sisters, OR. Radicle Roots is run by James Bernston, a first generation farmer from Snohomish, Washington. Farming is time and labor intensive work, even with a work force, and James does it all on his own, with help from his girlfriend Sydney when she is free from her Masters studies in Counseling. Due to the responsibilities of plant care, he operates at a small scale. As a market garden, James does his part to cultivate a variety of select crops for the Central Oregon Food system...
