Willow Creek Farm has been organic since its beginning in 1983. They’ve been certified by California Certified Organic Farmers since 2000.

The farm produces many fruits and vegetables using orgainc methods that exclude synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and genetically modified organisms.

These methods protect and enhance wildlife habitat and biodiversity while supplying a local source of nutitious produce to our community.

Owner Michael Peterson is a familiar face at many local farmers’ markets; he supplies many of our local supermarkets; and usually has enough surplus to wholesale some of his produce to distributors in the Bay Area.

Michael Peterson and his wife Jen run one of the most productive organic farms in Humboldt County.

The relative low elevation of the farm ensures mild winters and hot summers, and provides great growing conditions for many summer and winter crops.

Almost every week of the year, you’ll be able to find something on the Co-op shelves that was grown at Willow Creek Farm.
