VIVA FARMS

Viva Farms is a non-profit (501c-3 and charitable organization), Farm Business Incubator and Training Program established in 2009. We operate 119 acres, two locations in Skagit County, and one in King County, Washington. We lower the barriers for beginning farmers, and create the opportunity for success. Viva Farms has educated over 1,000 farmers (150+ Spanish speakers) in sustainable organic farming. We are currently incubating 29 farm businesses (9 Latino-owned, 44% female-owned) and anticipate having 40 students in our Practicum in Sustainable Agriculture in 2021... We believe that sustainable organic farming can be an economically viable business, and it is our hope that with the knowledge, experience, and passion for producing healthy food in a sustainable way, todays' aspiring farmers will become part of the solution that nourishes our planet and ourselves for generations to come.
