Root Cellar Farm

Root Cellar Farm ~ Naturally Grown Organic Produce ~ Root Cellar Farm is situated in the Meadow on northeast side of the Tehachapi Mountain.

Welcome to Root Cellar Farm...the Maker's pantry

Located in Tehachapi, California commonly known as the Land of Four Seasons. The beauty of the location is inspiring but the weather and wildlife make farming a challenge. Working naturally with the environment Root Cellar Farm has become a reliable source of a wide variety of produce grown without harmful chemicals and pesticides. Offering

the community produce "Fresh from the Farm". Root Cellar Farm does not resale Produce from other growers! The buyers advantage is produce that has NOT been packed, transported and possibly handled less. "From the Field to the You" means produce that keeps longer too. Spring of 2015 will be the 10th growing seasons and the 5th season of offering Fresh Organically Grown Produce to the community. If you live in the Tehacapi area and enjoy extremely fresh Produce at a reasonable price, contact Root Cellar Farm. PHONE 661-822-200 ~ [email protected] ~ message on facebook

How sweet, "red and white" ~ just in time for a festive holiday meal!
Today's humble harvest, I think we will bring in some fresh rosemary and enjoy these over pasta. A simple row cover extends the harvest.

~ Wildlife and the Farm ~ 23 th of Nov 2014 "Bear Morning"

We have great respect for wildlife and know we are very blessed to live where we can enjoy their presence. We have also gone to great lengths to make sure we do not attract them to this little plot of land. Practices have been established to prevent them (as much as possible) from making our farm a part of there feeding route.This is our 9th winter living in the meadow and the first bear crossing that we are aware of.

As you see in the album of pictures below it is not only farm animals or berry vines that bears destroy. The stock fencing keeps out the roaming cattle but determined to walk across the south west side of the property, this bear damaged the fencing in 2 places.

Thanking God for the goodness in each situation is our practice, it is our way of life. Had the bear come across the north west side of the property, it would have passed the goats, chickens and dog housing. We are very thankful that all of our animals are fine.

This morning was a reminder that our way of life is a cycle, not just planting and reaping but building and repairing. A reminder to be forever aware of our surroundings.

How I wish I could express what I am feeling at this moment. It is like the bad dream you knew was coming but your reality seemed to push it back.
