A tribute to our little lady

July 29, 2016 Katrina McAlexander

Our sweet dog went to doggie heaven last night and we are all crying this morning on the farm because she was such a delightful friend. She was the perfect farm dog and was always game to go on a farming adventure, ride along or walk with us each day. She loved to eat ripe pears, greet our customers and loved us all with all her lil heart. Little Lady you will missed greatly, rest in peace sweet girl. xoxo your grateful and broken hearted farmer

Grateful

The grateful farmer is a blog about a woman who left her job in the the city to come home to save the family farm. My desire is to candidly share my journey learning how to farm a 50 acre Orchard at the base of Mt. Hood. I invite you to follow along as I share seasonal recipes, childhood memories, farming successes and failures. Please enjoy the Orchard photos collaging the beautiful seasons and harvests here at Mt. View Orchards. I am grateful and humbled that are you are reading along and want you to know that my farm is your farm.

Looking for a spot to take some family photos or picnic? Our sunflowers are in bloom and it’s a beautiful day to come visit the farm. #mtvieworchards

Honeycrisp apples are a favorite @mtvieworchards and today we are going to be sharing some forward with our local food bank. Apples are extremely rich in important antioxidants, flavanoids, and dietary fiber. The phytonutrients and antioxidants in apples may help reduce the risk of developing cancer, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. @mtvieworchards we believe everyone deserves to enjoy the best of our 2018 local apple harvests. We have them in our farm stand as well if you want to pick some up for your lunches. #mtvieworchards #afarmthatcares #afarmthatgathers #afarmthatgivesback #apples #honeycrisps
