Company description

Local Roots Farm is an awesome place to work. We are a family run vegetable farm (Jason & Siri & our two kids) and we've been farming in the beautiful Snoqualmie Valley for 18 years. We are known for our work growing and promoting radicchio, chicories, and other unusual Italian vegetables. We even started a radicchio festival back in 2018! 

Growing vegetables is hard, labor intensive work, but it's also joyous. We love working outside and working quickly and efficiently with our hands and bodies. On our farm, we prioritize quality of life, work-life balance, community, and fun. Many of our workers have been with us for 5+ years, which we think is a testament to our philosophy about work.... or perhaps a testament to the glorious swimming hole on our farm :-)
