We have heard loud and clear from consumers and farmers alike that demand for local farm-fresh products has never been greater. As a result, partners from around the state are working together to create a comprehensive online
Washington Food & Farm Finder.
The goal of this project is to facilitate connections between consumers and farm/food businesses across Washington.
Over the course of the next year we will be working together to merge our various online farm maps into a single, easy-to-use platform. This will enable us to work more efficiently to promote Washington State agriculture while building a valuable resource for consumers seeking to connect to local farmers.
The Eat Local First Collaborative is made up of regional partner organizations from around the state that are working together to merge different online farm finder tools into a single easy-to-use platform. Want to join the Colalborative? Contact Us!

We produce a print and online Farm Guide, offer training and resources for farmers on organic, regenerative, and sustainable farming practices through Farm Walks and the annual Tilth Conference; host WA FarmLink to help farmers find available land; and offer grants to farmers to implement sustainable agriculture projects. We also offer garden education for the whole family, food access programs, and environmental stewardship training.
The Washington State University Food Systems Program delivers multidisciplinary expertise across academic, research, and extension, providing specialized resources for farmers and food systems contributors. Our work is guided by an interdisciplinary team made up of WSU Faculty, Staff, and critical non-WSU partners. We seek to work with communities throughout the state to foster viable farm businesses, optimize sustainable natural resource stewardship, and to promote scaled processing and distribution, always in the pursuit of access to healthy food for all.
The WSU Regional Small Farms Program supports small to mid-sized farms in Clallam, Jefferson and Kitsap counties by leveraging the broad resources of Washington State University.
