Snowy Blanket

Unknown Farm

SE Salem, OR

We had a freak snow roll through town last night that covered most of the city in two inches of snow. Didn't help with a quick commute this morning.

Irrigation Pipes

Brooks, OR

Seeing farmers inventorying their irrigation equipment is as sure a sign that spring is around the corner as seeing the daffodils starting to bloom.

On the Farm

Farm on Liberty Rd.
Salem, OR

The Willamette Valley, in which the City of Salem is nested, is one of the most diverse agricultural regions in the world. More than 170 different crops including grains, hays, grass seed field crops of all kinds, tree fruits and nuts, small fruits and berries, wines, fresh and processed vegetables, Christmas trees, nursery stock, dairy, poultry and beef are all produced within this spectacular valley. I'm unsure of what crops are being worked on this farm but it is wedged between Pronzini Christmas Trees and Ankeny Vineyards.

Breeding alpacas worth $10-20K? Source of organic weaving fiber? Potty-trained? I think I may have found my next investment.
