Discovering the Skagit Valley

Situated near the Cascade Mountains, the valley offers a unique microclimate that nurtures the growth of diverse crops.
Origins of Cascadian Farm
Cascadian Farm was born out of a shared love for nature and a passion for sustainable farming. It all started in 1972 when our founders, Gene and Betty, decided to turn their love for the land into a thriving organic farm. With unwavering dedication, they transformed a neglected plot into what is now known as Cascadian Farm.
Gene and Betty's pioneering spirit led them to embrace organic farming practices long before it became a popular movement. They believed that taking care of the land and working in harmony with nature would not only yield wholesome products but also preserve the earth for future generations.
Commitment to Organic Farming
At Cascadian Farm, we firmly believe that organic farming is the key to ensuring the health and vitality of our planet. We aim to provide our customers with nutritious, flavorful, and chemical-free products that are as good for them as they are for the environment.
We take great care in maintaining the fertility and biodiversity of our land.

By stewarding the land with utmost respect, we ensure that each crop thrives in its own natural rhythm.
