Love farm to fork? Fill your belly with fresh produce from a local institution and one of our longtime partners in ag—Full Belly Farm! This local, certified organic farm has been growing premium produce in the beautiful Capay Valley of Yolo County since 1985. Led by six partners dedicated to the roots of what it means to truly be organic, this 400-acre farm does everything they can to grow great food in harmony with nature.

Committed to long-term sustainable strategies and environmental goals, Full Belly Farm looks at organic farming as a proactive process from the ground up, literally! They work to support soil health by creating layers of life throughout their farm. Animals fertilize soil that produces flowers which bring bees who pollinate vegetables which feed us (and the animals) and so on, creating a complex, symbiotic dynamic that benefits everything in it.

Full Belly Farm also takes care of their team by providing year-round employment with all kinds of different fruits, veggies, nuts, and flowers growing throughout the seasons. To keep their footprint small, they only sell their goods within a 120-mile radius of their farm (our headquarters is only 45 miles away!). And they support the future of farming by hosting educational tours and their annual Hoes Down Festival, a delicious celebration of sustainable food systems!
