Small Farms Team

Program Description
WSU’s Small Farms Team works with communities to foster profitable family farms, land and water stewardship, and access to healthy food. Forty members strong, the team coordinates research, teaching and outreach to benefit smalland mid-sized family-owned farms. The diverse knowledge base of the team is a resource available to farmers and consumers across the state who are developing sustainable, communitybased food and farming systems. Team members represent a wide variety of specialties and are based in WSU programs, state agencies and non-profit organizations. The team’s goals are to build public support for agriculture; to preserve Washington farmland for food and fiber production; to help farmers adopt practices that are sustainable-economically, socially and environmentally; and to unify farmers and consumers in developing local markets and community food access.
