Gardening in the era of climate change is no small feat! Each season brings a new challenge. Here in the PNW, you're likely wondering about how to handle the hot summer droughts, and perhaps the downpours of cold drawn-out springs. Understanding your soil is key to both!

Join us on Wednesday, July 1st to learn about at-home soil tests and how to understand and improve the conditions in your garden. We'll also discuss irrigation, heat stress, plant choices, and you'll have an opportunity to tour the GRuB farm and learn about what we are doing to increase resilience.

Today’s the day! GRuB's Market Stand is open for the season!

Stop by between 3:00-6:30 PM and support local youth by purchasing fresh, farm-grown produce. Every purchase helps support GRuB's programs and provides hands-on opportunities for youth to learn and connect through farming.

Today's harvest includes:
• Lettuce
• Kale
• Mustard greens
• Radishes

Plus, we have a limited selection of plant starts available! Find us every Wednesday from June through October. Can't wait to see you!

Our 2026 Bouquet CSA share orders are open! Support our farm and youth program and get a beautiful farm-fresh, youth-made bouquet weekly on Wednesdays for 8 weeks.

When you invest in a bouquet share you are helping provide youth and young adults in our community with quality education and leadership development opportunities on the GRuB farm, through the responsibility of tending, harvesting, and assembling a desirable product. It is also as deeply nourishing for them to make them as it is for you to receive and cherish them.

The cost is $185 for 8 weeks of flowers. No delivery option is available. If you are not able to pick up in the timeframe listed below then your bouquet will be set out on the back porch with your name on it for you to grab.

Pick-up is on Wednesdays between 3:00pm - 6:00pm. Purchase here: https://www.goodgrub.org/bouquet-share
