Cloud Mountain Farm Center Pivots to Online Nursery Sales and Tasting Boxes

Cloud Mountain Farm Center announces their plans to celebrate the harvest season this October in a safe and healthy way. Instead of holding their annual Fall Fruit Festival, the farm and nursery are celebrating with an extravaganza - complete with nursery sales, new Farmer’s Choice Tasting Boxes, fresh fruit, cider, squash, and more.


While the annual event typically features tastings of over 200 varieties of fruits and vegetables grown at the farm, the community is now invited to order a tasting box featuring different farm-fresh fruit each week. The boxes include information about the fruits, favorite recipes, and tips for growing. Farmer’s Choice Tasting Boxes can be ordered online or by phone for pick up at the farm in Everson.

October nursery sales include 25% all online inventory and 33% off fruit trees. Gallons of apple cider and five-pound bags of fruit are also available for purchase on their website or over the phone for pick up at the farm. The nursery is currently closed for in-person shopping, but orders can be picked up Thursdays – Saturdays from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Cloud Mountain Farm Center helps grow new farmers through their internship and incubator farm programs, educates home gardeners, and increases the diversity of fruit varieties grown in Western Washington.

The Fall Fruit Extravaganza is made possible with the support of Haggen and CHS Northwest:

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
