Our farm is located 15 miles from downtown Portland, nestled among farmland and wildlife refuges. Since 1993 we have been growing our crops in the rich soils of Sauvie Island.
Our mission is to provide you, our customers with the highest quality, seasonal, organic vegetables nature allows us to produce. We accomplish this by planning well, working hard, treating each other with respect, and continuing to improve upon our knowledge base each season.
Sauvie Island Organics started in 1993 with one small acre and two hard working women. We sold our vegetables at the Portland Farmers Market and to three area restaurants. As our experience grew so did the demand for locally grown produce. In 1996 we expanded to three acres, bought our first tractor and incorporated a 30 member CSA into our marketing mix. Today we grow on 25 acres, employ dozens of hard working crew members and own 4 tractors. We nourish hundreds of households through our CSA program, deliver to dozens of area restaurants and several college campuses and in the winter can be found at the Hillsdale Farmers’ Market.
