Our Farm · Klamath Falls, Oregon

Built from the ground up

Raw land, family hands, and four seasons of work in the Klamath Basin.

Our Story

From fallow ground to a working farm

In 2022, my wife Sara and I purchased more than 35 acres in Klamath Falls, Oregon — raw land that had sat fallow for years with zero infrastructure. No irrigation. No equipment. Just open sky, volcanic soil, and a lot of potential.

What drew us here wasn't just the land — it was the idea of building something real. Something our family could work with their hands, watch grow season by season, and pass down. We relocated from Portland, put down roots in Southern Oregon, and got to work.

Over the last three years we have poured sweat and personal finances into the property. We now own a full irrigation system and farming equipment, and are in our second year growing winter wheat — baled as small bales for local livestock feed.

After this season we plan to transition acreage into alfalfa, with a portion reserved for future cattle grazing. Our mission stays constant: growing quality livestock feed — wheat, alfalfa, and eventually garlic — for the Southern Oregon agricultural community.

Farming and solar on the same ground

We are working with a solar developer on a 6-acre agrivoltaics installation — community solar energy generation with raspberry cultivation planted beneath the panels.

Agrivoltaics pairs energy production with active farming instead of taking ground out of production. The panels provide partial shade that can reduce water demand for the crops below — a meaningful benefit in a drought-prone basin.

Sara and I will co-manage the farming operations under the lease, keeping the ground worked by the same family that farms the rest of the property.
