About Us
Black Moon Farms is a 70-acre organic farm situated just a mile from the incredibly scenic Oregon coast. Our primary crops are cranberries and blueberries, however, we grow a variety of responsibly raised fruits, vegetables, herbs, chestnuts, and mushrooms, too. In addition to fruits and veggies, our farm is home to about 44 grazing sheep, five chickens, two farm cats, and Bella the farm dog, who keep us on our toes and play important roles in making the farm run smoothly.
Black Moon Farms also participates in World Wide Organization of Organic Farmers (WWOOF) programs and regularly hosts volunteers from all over the world to help out with chores and learn about farm life in exchange for room and board – meaning lots of fresh coffee, family-style dinners, and diverse conversation with new friends!
Our organic Stevenson cranberries produce a large, deep red fruit that thrives in Oregon’s naturally acidic, wet soil. We choose to fresh-pick our berries as opposed to wet harvesting, giving our customers versatility to use the fruits however they choose – in jams, jellies, sauce, pies, juice, and more! Peak harvest season is mid-October through early November.
