Local Farmers

Terra Organics partners with local organic farms to bring our customers the freshest organic produce possible during the local growing season. Our goal is to support local farms, communities and economies while reducing the environmental impact of long distance shipping.

Aside from our direct relationships with the farms listed here, Terra Organics buys produce as often as possible from other certified organic Washington and Northwest farms.

Tahoma Farms

Tahoma Farms is a 40-acre former dairy located just south of the town of Orting.  The farm began operations in April 2009, and in September of the same year, Kim and Dan Hulse, owners of Terra Organics, purchased the farm.  During the growing season, more than half of the food in Terra's boxes come from Tahoma Farms.
