Angela here! I would love to share a meal and my love of cooking with you. For over 20 years I have been a chef, gardener and homesteader and always bring the treats that leave friends and family asking for more. I believe in my heart that a more beautiful and just world is possible and that our “small” local actions can plant the seed of this future.
I am a Boulder local bringing soil expertise and a stiff back to help Friends Farm grow into a beacon of education and food awesomeness. In my studies on soil and the earth I have learned how powerful our little slice of heaven can be, and am motivated to conserve and steward the land for future generations. I hope you will stop by, the only way we are doing it is together, and we have the best office view in town! Join us for my favorite farm foods: pesto, bruschetta, and arugula salad.
I’m Oliver and I love to help others create systems and lives more in harmony with the Earth and real community. Maybe you’ve also wondered what cultural change and having a regenerative society will really take? For over a decade, I have studied ecology, farming, anthropology, community building and systems thinking. I have worked on a variety of farms and taught classes in foraging, soil and regenerative technologies. I am excited to help create and learn together with you on this journey!
Friends Farm leases 2 acres from the Nyland Cohousing Community as part of an incubator for increasing local food production set up by Waves of Grain food coop. Nyland Cohousing is Colorado's largest and oldest cohousing community with over 100 members and a dedication to creating a vibrant local food scene.
A massive thank you to our partners that make this dream of a restorative, sustainable, community possible.

Given the relationship agriculture has with the land and the historical, cultural, and community implications of our relationships with the land we humbly give thanks to the past stewards of our land including the Hinono'eiteen (Arapaho), Núuchi-u (Ute), Newe (Shoshone), Tsétsêhéstâhese (Cheyenne), Cáuigú (Kiowa) and numerous other tribal groups who lived and continue to live here so intimately. We hope we can continue in the spirit of life in Partnership with the Earth and be of service to these and other marginalized groups through our work.
