pesto from Winter Green Farm

P e s t o a n d P e s t o B a s e from Winter Green Farm ~ Locally Grown Organic Basil Products
Our sweet basil and Italian parsley are both organically grown in the healthy soil of our Oregon farm.
We harvest our herbs during the summer when their flavor peaks. The fresh, succulent leaves are
immediately washed and pureed in a quality mix of extra virgin olive and canola oils. The puree is either
frozen directly for our Winter Green Farm Pesto Base or blended with other fine natural ingredients to
create our Winter Green Farm Pesto. We process in our certified on-farm kitchen.
Our goal is to give you quality local organic products that are consistent, convenient and incredibly good!
We market our products through a wide variety of convenient distributors.

Our Mission Statement: A Productive Farm In Balance With The Earth, Humanity, & Ourselves
Winter Green Farm is a three-family farm in the beautiful foothills of the Oregon coast range
20 miles west of Eugene. Our 170 acre mixed-crop and livestock farm has been certified organic since
1984. We grow wholesale crops such as sweet basil and burdock root, forage and cover crops, and a wide
diversity of vegetables and small fruits for our Community Farm program (CSA) and
Farmers Markets. Our farm also supports 40 acres of wetlands and wild areas.
Winter Green Farm employs organic and biodynamic farming methods, and we view our farm as a
living organism. This means we strive to create a healthy farm-scale ecosystem. The vast majority of our
fertility is produced on-farm, and we view this as one sign of a farm in biological balance.
The backbone of our fertility program is the use of well ripened compost, green manure crops, careful
crop rotation, and pasturage of our grazing stock. The health of our farm is reflected in the quality of our
crops.
In 2002 Winter Green Farm was honored with the Oregon Tilth Producer of the Year Award for
commitment to integrity in biologically sound and socially equitable agriculture.
Our Community Farm Program and Farmers Markets help connect consumers directly to our farm and
help us meet one of our goals of producing quality basic foods for the local community. In its 17th year,
our Community Farm is providing 550 families with weekly boxes of produce. We are vendors at four
Farmers Markets in Portland (Hollywood, East Bank, Portland State University, and Milwaukie)
and the Wednesday Farmers Market in Bend.
Thank you for your interest in our farm! For more information about us, please go to our website:
