We purchased the property for our farm in 2007. It was a ten acre weed patch that had been used for a car repair business. With the help of my wife, daughters and grandsons our ten acres were transformed into the Berry & Nut Farm.
I wanted the farm to be unique, so in 2008, to go along with the one nut tree already on the property, some nut trees and nut tree seed were planted.
In 2009, I planted many more nut trees and ordered huckleberry plants. We prepared an area for huckleberry plants but the plants were delayed, and then delayed a second time. Desperately, I went to the freezer, planted frozen huckleberries in the prepared area – nothing. Huckleberry plants finally arrived and were planted. Our farm has since added more nut trees and huckleberry plants. My daughters have really become involved, adding lots of flowers and potted plants.
