FAQ's

Who is PSFN for?

Puget Sound Food Network is for all aspects of healthy food production. We are a resource for Producers like farms and dairies, Buyers like grocery stores and restaurants, Services like packagers and distributors and everyday eaters.

How is PSFN different other online marketplaces?

• PSFN connects farms to markets by building relationships and using technology to support this work, not the other way around. The network is already helping move product and making connections between local food producers and buyers. 
• PSFN is for Washingtonians.  Our network is designed to move regional product in the Puget Sound market, where about 80% of our state population resides. We live in this market as well and have a vested interest in the success of our own counties and communities.
• PSFN is focused on signing up committed members who want to, or are currently, engaged with regional wholesale transactions. We will not visibly be a large database of all players in the system but instead a targeted list of engaged players. PSFN houses a much larger database of regional food businesses which it will use to provide support for members.
