Description
Our primary goal is to provide our CSA members with the most nutritionally complete vegetables and fruit we can grow. To that end, we make caring for our soil a priority. We test our soil twice a year so that we can correct any imbalance and we apply trace minerals, cover crop extensively and practice minimal tillage. Vegetables grown in healthy, nutrient rich soil look and taste amazing! We are a true CSA in that almost everything grown on the farm goes to our 1,200 CSA members.

Helsing Junction Farm was founded in 1992 by Annie Salafsky and Susan Ujcic. Both are graduates of The Evergreen State College and have deep roots in agriculture. The farm began as a 75 member CSA and over the years has slowly expanded to its current size of 1200 shareholders. The partnership between Annie and Sue has grown to include their families as well as the families of the people who work with them. It's a group effort now, with great pride taken in the health and fertility of the soil as well as the beauty of the produce grown.
