Helsing Junction Farms

We are Anna Salafsky and Susan Ujcic. Together with a crew of 12 amazing people we grow 35 acres of organic vegetables, fruit and flowers and run an 1000-member CSA program. We've been farming in Rochester, Washington since 1992. Over the years, the farming community in Rochester has flourished, and we are now one of several small farms that sell their produce locally via CSA programs and farmer's markets.

Here at Helsing Junction Farm we grow a wide range of vegetables, and our small fertile valley produces some of the finest organic produce available. We like to think that we've tried pretty much everything in the seed catalog over the years! Some of our favorites are arugula, sweet corn, leeks, carrots, delicata squash, spinach and all-purple and all-red potatoes. Some of the more unusual vegetables we grow are bulbing fennel, escarole, French filet beans, radicchio, Italian zucchini and 10 types of gourmet lettuce. We also raise several acres of strawberries and raspberries and have a small orchard of Asian pears and Liberty apples. In addition, we cultivate several acres of calla lilies, Asiatic and Oriental lilies, gladiolas, lavender and sunflowers and grow 10 different varieties of herbs.
