Gifts
Please don’t feel that gift giving is necessary. We will be happy to simply have you come and participate in our gathering to recognize our permanent union.
If you would like to bring a gift, we love getting items that are used!
We could put the following items to great use, (if you have an extra laying around, this could be a good gift idea). As many of you know, we are starting a small sustainable farm
Drill (12V or larger if battery-powered)
Chainsaw (minimum of 24” bar)
Ladder (three legged pruning ladder, 12 ft. minimum)
Circular saw
Post hole digger
Blueberry bushes
Fig tree (variety that can grow in a pot)
Wheelbarrow
Hoe
5 gallon buckets are always needed! Dirty is fine.
We would be happy to receive gift certificates from the following places:
Territorial seeds: We can’t always find the plants and seeds we want in Port Townsend, so we mail order many of our them.

Henery’s Hardware in Port Townsend: This is the best and most helpful hardware store we have ever been at. We visit them regularly to build our many farming contraptions.

Food Co-op: The best grocery store around! They sell local, organic yummy food.
Gifts of cash will go to the purchase of a dairy cow and associated supplies. We were going to get a cow this year, but figured a new cow and a new babymight be a little much for one year. Here is a photo of the type we will be getting:
