2026 Farm Photo Gallery:

2026 was our first year in production here at the We Are Up Community Farm! Through the support of our donors and volunteers we were able to grow produce for Seagoat Farmstand and host our first public event, Dahlia Days. Below are some highlights from our first season in production!

We Are Up’s beautiful acreage has been fertile ground for generations, producing an annual harvest of field hay for hungry livestock. We will continue this tradition of haying our open acres, providing purpose for residents and proving many hands can truly lighten the load.

“To be a farmer is to be a student forever, for each day brings something new.”

-John Connell

The We Are Up model is rooted in agriculture - working with plants and animals offers seniors and people with disabilities a deep sense of connection, purpose, and peace. It taps into something timeless: The joy of nurturing life, and being needed. Animals don’t judge. Plants don’t rush. Together, they create a quiet world where healing can grow and people can flourish. One key feature will be our community supported agriculture (CSA).

Thanks to Royal Gold and other sponsors our gardens are producing exceptional produce and flowers!
