Bryan Mesa
De La Mesa Farms is a pioneering farm business that uses farming as a platform for environmental stewardship, education and mentoring, and community building in order to build more sustainable communities. The 2.5 acre farm is located in the urban setting of Tacoma, Washington and is a regenerative, no-till market garden that focuses on organic methods to improve soil health and soil biodiversity. In 2024, we hope to increase our capacity to serve our community year-round by investing in efficiency-building tools and infrastructure. As on any small farm, labor is our biggest expense, and by investing in tools to help our small, well-trained staff work more efficiently, we can significantly reduce our labor costs.
