About Us

Our vision statement reads, “cultivating connection between land and table” and we take this statement seriously. Our goals are: to establish a sustainable farm; to connect people with the land and the food that nourishes them; and to provide agricultural products of the highest quality. Through the farm’s products, we hope to open an educational dialogue about our environment, our economy, and ourselves.

Adding value to our farm products through our commercial kitchen and farm store allows us to grow our farm in a balanced way–with less stress on the land and plants. The income from these “value-added” activities coupled with the greater profit margin from direct marketing permits the farm to maintain a reasonable and “human” scale. Thus we are able to avoid the ‘conventional’ monoculturally-based, industrial-scale, factory-farming methods which are prevalent in the country today.

Local and regional direct marketing of our products through the farm store, Orcas Food Co-Op, and the CSA program allows for a social interaction that brings people onto the farm and helps to develop long lasting connections.
