Spring fed, Sierra grown vegetables, fruits & herbs. Welcome to
Snowline Farms in Alta, California

Who are we

Snowline Farm is a family-owned sustainable vegetable and herb farm in the Sierra Nevada foothills (Alta, CA) situated at 4000 ft. We grow a variety of vegetables, including tomatoes, peppers, onions, garlic, kale, lettuce, melons, cucumbers, and squash. We follow the highest quality standards for farming methods.

What we do

We are busy year round on the farm. Once the snow melts in the spring, we work using no till gardening methods to do soil build up and bed preparation. Due to the elevation at Alta, we are able to get cool weather crops going as soon as risk of frost is over. Spring and early summer we are full out planting and nurturing our seedling into mature plants. In the heat of summer and into the fall we’re in full swing picking , weeding and enjoying our products. Come the late fall, we we are into cleanup and fall plantings of our garlic.
