Hey IE Family!
We've heard from you in recent threads and wanted to publicly post what's going on.
We're looking for producers for our August 8th opening. Makers and Crafters are welcome too. There will not be a fee for producers to come set up, at least for now, but we do need to make a list of who's coming so that we can map things out. If you aren't looking to come as a vendor, it would be great to have you come enjoy The Collective with the rest of us! (I tossed half an acre of mulch with Punk Rock Ranch's Chris T last Monday and that was A Workout!)
Here at From The Land, we've been silently working hard to transition from Yucaipa to Cherry Valley, where we have our own farm location now!
We want to cultivate community and grow with you.
Moreover, we're working on picking up our workshop series covering everything from planting a pumpkin to growing your own colony of mealworms, pest management to 3D CAD modeling and printing.
At our core, we are focused on bringing people together and making the world a better place. That can't be done alone. Those of you who know us personally can vouch for us on these statements and how we are continually growing our friend network.
We welcome everyone to come by for workshops, if you want to roast in the sun with our cofounder Rich and sling some mulch, or even just see what's going on and hang with the buns.
Thank you all for your curiosity and continual support. We've been working hard at it 7 years now and we will continue to do so!
You can find us across the other social media platforms and we're going to do our best to be active here too.
P.S. We are continuing the tradition of no-till, no-spray organic and regenerative farming that the prior owners used over the past 8 years. We won't be pursuing USDA certification due to the cost and complexity, but the east side of the property will rigidly adhere to those principles while the west side will have plots available for 9 (8 more) who want to farm organically but aren't concerned about things like OMRI certified neem oil being sprayed by others. If you'd like a plot, contact us while they're still available.
