The Farm

We are SkyRoot Farm! 2013 marks our second year farming here and it is just so wonderful. When we think of the potential we have this year, joy literally bursts forth from us. Last year we grew on an acre, managed to sell at two markets and had a fall CSA. This year we are doubling the space and hoping to bring tons more to our markets (Langley and Bayview) and will be doing a summer and fall CSA.

Beth grew up on a farm in upstate New York and Joanne, on a cul-de-sac in the suburbs of Everett. We meet at the University of Washington through the UW Farm and have come to SkyRoot with unique skills that make for a dynamic farm team.  We think of the farm as an ecosystem and hold that at the forefront of our operation.  Although veggies are our main product we integrate several animals into the farm: including bees, worms, goats and an almost 4 yr old human. We strive to grow delicious vegetables, build our soil and create a successful business.

We practice agriculture thoughtfully – the worms, insects, bacteria and fungus on our farm agree that our growing practices are worth standing by!   If you’d like to know more about our specific growing practices please come speak with us or send us an e-mail.  You can find us at the Bayview Market on Saturdays starting April 27th. 10-2.   And in Langley on Fridays, starting in June. 3-7.  If you’d like to join the CSA – send us a note – wheat@skyrootfarm.com.
