Thanks. I checked out the web site. I'll look into it further, hopefully it will be what I was looking for.

I think you'll be pleased.

There is also the Western Cascade Fruit Society. There are many active chapters in the area. Check out the website to see if there is a local chapter in your area.

Excellent! I've googled on the website and it is worth looking into. Thanks!

Thank you so much for posting this! I started a "food forest" in my yard last year and would love to share info and learn from others! Thanks again!!!

I know that there is a Tahoma (Tacoma) chapter of the West Cascades fruit growers' association that meets in South Tacoma. It is a pretty good club. What part of Washington State are you in? There is also a chapter that meets at Evergreen College, on the far left side of the Capitol Building.

The far left side? Does Evergreen College offer an Ultra Liberal Arts degree?

Is anyone on this thread still around? I am transplanting for Los Angeles, Ca to Vancouver, Wa. I have been part of CRFG before and desperately want to meet some like minded fols in the area. Our family is looking to start a small farm. :D

i don't have many connections north of the columbia river, but i work in real estate and have helped people buy small hobby farms. i might be able to get you talking to a few people who are doing what you are planning on doing.

could you describe what your plans are? or its such a huge subject that maybe you want to email me. vintagegeorge at gmail.

Home Orchard Society is still the main active group in this area.

Farmer's markets and Subscription farming abound in the region.
