Program areas at Carnation Farms

Carnation Farms' sustainable agriculture activities include 400 acres of certified organic vegetable, fruit, egg, grain, hay and livestock production for sale and for use in its education programs. The Carnation Farms farmstand receives more than 10,000 visitors per year and not only sells products from the farm to the local populace, but also provides an outlet for other local farmers to sell their products.

Camps and classes: Carnation Farms hosts culinary and farm related classes and workshops giving the public hands-on experiences that connect them to agriculture. Many local schools also visit the farm through our field trip program. Each summer, Carnation Farms offers summer camps for kids. Due to covid-19 pandemic, most of these activities were cancelled. Certain classes were held virtually and some small family field trips were offered.
Culinary: Carnation Farms hosts a variety of mission-based culinary events including farm-to-table meals and other food-focused events. Carnation Farms provides catering services utilizing organic produce and livestock products from our farm and/or sourced from other community partners. Carnation Farms also creates value-added products using our organic and locally sourced ingredients to supply prepared foods through our farmstand. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, many of these activities were not able to be held at the farm. However, Carnation Farms did create drive thru dinners to provide additional healthy food options for the community.
