“The point of growing your own food is to grow things that you can’t get anywhere else,” Bumblebee Farm co-owner-operator Amy White said while showing off her fields of colorful produce. Pink napa cabbage, iridescent green beans, and striped summer squash are just a few of the unique vegetables thriving under the care of White and fellow co-owner / operator Katy Bond.
Bumblebee Farm is in the Snoqualmie Valley, just outside of the City of Sammamish. In this fertile soil, Bond and White produce enough vegetables for 50 weekly CSA boxes, plus direct-to-restaurant sales, direct-to-foodbank sales, and even sales to distributor Farmstand Local Foods between just the two of them.
