About Us

We’re a small farm: 2 acres of diversified crops tucked between two forested ridges and surrounded by pure Pacific Northwest nature. Snowgrass Farm is the realization of farmer Jenny Bourgeois farming experience and apprenticeships over the years. With the support of her husband, family and friends, Jenny and the farm are committed to local food, sustainability and the community that supports it.

Growing & Operating Practices

We utilize certified organic farming methods, various permaculture concepts and minimal tillage practices to help regenerate and build healthy soils and nutritional crops. Through an ecologically focused stewardship approach, we enhance biodiversity through diverse perennial plantings and hedgerows, wildlife habitat development, and responsible weed management that help achieve a highly diversified farm environment. The resulting healthy ecosystem provides incredibly nutritious and flavorful produce.
