Gales Meadow Farm

Rene' and Anne Berblinger began farming in the Gales Creek Valley in western Washington County in 1999. Our farm, on the northeast side of Gales Creek Road, includes 9 flat acres of wonderful soil, a steep wooded hillside - the west side of Clapshaw Hill - and a riparian area with cottonwoods. We produce more than 200 varieties of great tasting and beautiful vegetables and herbs. Many of our varieties are heirlooms. Early in the season, we sell starts of tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, lettuce, squash, cucumbers, chard, and culinary herbs. We have more than 30 varieties of tomatoes, more than 20 sweet and hot peppers, and about ten kinds of eggplant. Throughout the whole season, we have herb starts and our popular leaf lettuce starts, which are pots containing 10-30 plants of many varieties of lettuce. As the season progresses, we offer the best familiar summer, fall, and winter vegetables and many unusual varieties. Our farming practices build the soil and provide habitat for wildlife including native plants, insects, birds, and microbes. We have been certified Organic by Oregon Tilth since 2001.
