First Light Farm is a Certified Naturally Grown Farm
& ​Voted King County's Rural Small Business of the year in 2016
At our farm, we live out our mission of healthy soils, healthy families, healthy communities through different programs and sustainable practices. Although our mission remains the same, our ability and practices change as we evolve in our knowledge of how to live and farm sustainably and interdependently
Supporting Healthy Soils
  • Cover Cropping
  • Composting
  • Crop Rotating
  • Purchasing Organic Seeds
  • No-Till or Tilling as little as possible
  • Using hand tools as much as possible rather than equipment that uses fossil fuel

Supporting the Health and Well-being for Individuals & Families
  • Two Mini Farm Programs** - Mini Farm Adult Program for adults interested in farming their own "mini" farm and our Mini Farm Family Program for families who want their children to learn the basics of gardening and where their food comes from.
  • Work Share Volunteer Program - trade 4 hours+/week of volunteer work  in exchange for a weekly box of produce.
  • FLF Farm Internship Positions  - a farm program for young adults 18+ interested in learning sustainable farming through hands-on education and practice throughout the summer. Each year, the farm supports the education of  3-5 farm interns for the growing season.  Interested in details? Please email us at firstlightfarm84@gmail.com
