Zach and Haley of Dharma Ridge Farms Chimacum Washington

20110919-IMG_9506

"As you leave Chimacum and head south along Beaver Valley on Highway 19, past the sheep farms and pastures of Solstice Farm, Bishop Dairy and Spring Hill Farm, take a right on Embody road, just past the Beaver Valley store. Near the end of the road where a road sign tells you “end of maintained county road” you come across a vegetable row crop operation named Dharma Ridge Farm.

Beep the horn and out tumble Zach Wailand and Haley Olson’s kids, Farryn, age 10, Asa, age 8, and Shai, age 4. They may look typical, but these kids have the independent attitude of children raised on a small farm, watching their parents work the land, humbled by its beauty and its unpredictablitliy. When I ask Farryn what makes her Dad stand out, she replies “he likes to build things”. Things like their “house and our chicken coop and stuff he pulls behind the tractor. He liked Legos when he was a kid.” she informs me."
