The Puget Sound Fresh Campaign is a program that was started several years ago by the King County Agriculture Commission in an effort to keep farming alive in the Puget Sound Area. The campaign encourages consumers, wholesalers, retailers, and restaurants to purchase products grown in the Puget Sound area. Farming is an important part of Northwest life and the Puget Sound Fresh Campaign would like to see stronger bonds formed between local farms and local communities. The Puget Sound Fresh logo can be found in the twelve counties that border the Puget Sound on products sold at farmer’s markets, fruit stands, grocery stores, and restaurants. Mike and Jean’s Berry Farm hopes that you enjoy its fresh strawberries and raspberries and is proud to call its products "Puget Sound Fresh".

Over the years, Mike and Jean’s Berry Farm has continually been an advocate for the preservation of farmland. With five generations of farming experience, the family realizes that the future of farming lies not only in the hands of independent farmers, but in those of the entire local community. Farmers and other community members must work together to promote local quality products and to maintain the success of area farms. It is for that reason that we at Mike & Jean’s have recently become active participants in the Puget Sound Fresh campaign.

Puget Sound Fresh is a program that was started several years ago by the King County Agriculture Commission in an effort to keep farming alive in the Puget Sound area. By labeling locally grown products as Puget Sound Fresh, program leaders hope to encourage consumers, wholesalers, retailers, and restaurants to purchase products that were grown in the area. Farming is key to the Northwest way of life and the Puget Sound Fresh Campaign hopes to establish a strong partnership between local growers and other members of the community in order to ensure the continued success of Puget Sound area farms.

The Puget Sound Fresh label can be found in any of the twelve counties that border the Puget Sound and any farm product grown in that area may be recognized as Puget Sound Fresh. Products are sold in a variety of settings including farmers markets, fruit stands, grocery stores, and restaurants. Mike and Jean’s Berry Farm, producers of Cascade Snow Cauliflower, are proud representatives of the Puget Sound Fresh program. We would like to work together with you to educate your customers about the mutual benefits made possible through this local program. We are confident that once your customers are familiar with the quality local products that bear the Puget Sound Fresh label, they will agree that local is better.
