WEEKLY UPDATES FROM THE FARM

Check in every week for news, recipes, and updates from Something Good!

February 3, 2025

Happy February! We’re pushing through some of the toughest weeks of the year for farming, but luckily we live on the Central Coast, where we can keep growing and harvesting, albeit more slowly.

January 27, 2025

Winter has truly settled in on the farm, bringing cold days and unseasonably dry weather. We were thrilled to see a few drops of rain over the weekend—as very little bit counts—and in the meantime, we're doing our best rain dance, hoping for more.

January 20, 2025

As we take a moment to honor Martin Luther King Jr. today, we’re reminded of his enduring legacy of service, unity, and resilience- "Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ " His words inspire us to reflect on how we can continue to support our community—whether through small acts of kindness, nourishing our bodies with wholesome food, or caring for the land that sustains us.

January 13, 2025

What a wildly horrific week it’s been. I spent about five years working at the farmers market in Pacific Palisades—a place that holds countless memories for me. Watching it burn on the news was nothing short of heartbreaking. My heart aches for everyone impacted by this tragedy. Mother Earth continues to cry out for our attention, reminding us how fragile and interconnected our world truly is.

January 6, 2025

We're back! Happy New Year and I hope everyone's holidays were wonderful. The two-week break from the CSA program whizzed by, but I was able to slow down, reconnect, and be present with my kids on the farm. Life on the farm can often feel like it’s in constant motion, so settling into their natural rhythms was such a gift. It reminded me of the simple beauty in slowing down—a value I hope we all carry with us into the new year.

This year has been a whirlwind, full of challenges and growth, but also moments of unexpected joy—like welcoming baby lambs this winter. Lambs are usually born in the spring, but our milder climate allows for surprises like this. It’s a reminder of the constant wonder nature provides when you work in harmony with it. Upon reflection, I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for the things that matter most: health, family, our farm, and the nourishment that comes from it. Even when the world feels chaotic, the rhythm of the land grounds me.

Behind the scenes, it takes a whole network of people to keep this farm running smoothly. There’s our mechanic Tom, who works magic on equipment that most would deem beyond repair. There are our tractor drivers, who are up and working long before most people are pouring their first cup of coffee—and I rise pretty early! Then there’s the backbone of our operation, the dedicated farm workers who show up six days a week to plant, harvest, and do the hard work that ensures the fields are thriving and the crops are abundant.

December 2, 2024

We’re thrilled to highlight a very special new product in the CSA store: honey from our very own Danielle! In addition to helping pack your CSA boxes, Danielle runs hives at her home and teaches about bees in Isla Vista. Her raw, unfiltered honey has a delightful wildflower-esque flavor, capturing the essence of the blooms her bees visit. She’s also created beautiful gift boxes with candles made from locally harvested wax, chapstick, and small jars of honey. These make perfect gifts and are available now. 

November 25, 2024

With the first rain of the season, we’re in the fields planting cover crops, tidying up every corner of the farm, and ensuring all the animals have a cozy sanctuary. There’s something about those first drops of rain that serve as a gentle nudge—reminding us to stay grounded and organized.

November 18, 2024

As we head into the holiday season, we’re excited to let you know that next week’s boxes will include some seasonal produce perfect for holiday meals. If you already know you’ll need to skip next week, please take a moment to update your account now. This helps us plan efficiently, especially as we’ll be gathering everything a bit earlier than usual to make sure we get all the best ingredients ready for you.
