King County Incubator
Beginning in 2018 and in parternership with Sustainable Agriculture Education (SAgE), our newest location is located in the Sammamish Valley in King County on the urban fringe of the greater Seattle metropolitan area. Like our original Skagit Valley farm business incubator, the Woodinville site offers land, equipment, infrastructure and training for beginning farmers to launch independent farm businesses. The urban incubator is comprised of smaller-scale and more intensive farming operations that reflect the location of the site and proximity to a larger urban center.
