Colinwood Farms: Centered in The Heart of Port Townsend & Chimicum, WA 


 

We've been growing fresh, local, certified organic produce for more than 20 years.


 

     Located in the center of Port Townsend, WA; Colinwood Farms grows fresh, local, organic produce all year round using our six greenhouses and 20 + acres. We sell produce through our farm stand, and also at the Port Townsend Farmer's Market, the Ballard Farmer's Market and Poulsbo Farmer’s Market.

      All of us at Colinwood Farm not only enjoy what we do tremediously, but we also believe that the cause and effect of farming is carried out beyound us. Onto every dinning room table, picnic basket, into every bike pannier and canvas bag, our and your belief in farming and wholesome, organic produce is shared. For us at Colinwood, its what we live for.

Along with produce, chicken & duck eggs, occasionally Colinwood will stock specialty items such as coffee and jam.

Jesse starred in an episode of "Organic Nation" showing how we extend our season by growing zucchini in greenhouses.
 
We are turning more and more to the cultivation of our beautiful organic crops using our greenhouses. This allows us to produce and attend markets all year round and supply the best and most delicious veggies possible.  The crops grow in our soil which has been organically enriched and cultivated for more than 24 years.

After a year on Colinwood, Jesse was made manager and moved in to the farm house with his partner Gina and son Ollie. Jesse has now been managing Colinwood for 4 years while Gina manages the flower field. Their son Ollie manages a little bit of everything, but mostly he keeps his eye on the tractor.
