The Red Barn Community Farm is in the Lowell Neighborhood, Everett, WA. It lies in the 100-year flood plain of the Snohomish River. The soil is rich bottom soil, Puget Sound Silty Loam. It has been well drained with ditches and a drainage canal. The farm is part of a 400 acre area owned by the City of Everett. 2011 is our first year as a Community Farm.

Green Drinks July 13, 5-7 pm
Snohomish County has an informal organization known as Green Drinks. It's not really about drinking, but it does contain the conviviality of "going for a drink after work." It is a meeting of environmentally conscious and social justice people to network, bring each other up to date on activities, etc. On Wednesday, July 13, Green Drinks will be held at the Red Barn Community Farm. All gardeners are invited to meet, mingle and make friends. Featured will be our new demonstration plot that is being planted with weekend. You will also be able to see several methods for dealing with the need for water at the farm. We're expecting a big crowd and parking will be limited so please carpool.
