Farms for Life ensures the viability of local sustainable farms and provides fresh produce to members of our community who are underserved.
Farms for Life is an all-volunteer organization that relies on the dedication of our volunteer board and committee members. We are looking for a volunteer to join us this season as our bookkeeper. The Bookkeeper works in collaboration with the Farms for Life Treasurer to execute, track, and report Farms for Life financial transactions using QuickBooks. Monthly transactions are limited and average approximately 12-20 per month. Estimated volunteer time averages 4 hours per month; peak times of the year would be January/February.
We do not have our own facility so most volunteers work from home and attending monthly board meetings located in east King County.

Mission Statement
Farms for Life ensures the viability of local sustainable farms and provides fresh produce to members of our community who are underserved.
Description
Farms for Life plays an important role in supporting local farmers and connecting local, farm fresh produce to people in need of healthy food. FFL began in 2009 by a local Woodinville farmer who hated leaving unsold produce in the fields to be tilled in and decided to ask her customers and CSA members if they would help come up with an idea to both support small local farmers and to feed the community in need of fresh food. Farms for Life was created as a non-profit in 2010, and in 2020 we purchased over 22,000 pounds of produce! We strive to constantly grow and support more farmers and donate more produce each year! Read more about our history here: https://www.farmsforlife.org/about-us
How we work: We raise funds to purchase surplus produce from our farm partners and donate the fresh produce to community agencies, both in the Snohomish and King County areas. The community agencies that we partner with serve populations who otherwise might not have access to fresh produce. They in turn either distribute the fresh produce to their clients farmers market style, or prepare healthy meals for their clients. See all of our current farm and agency partners at FarmsforLife.org!
Thank you for your interest in getting involved and supporting our work. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
