Snoqualmie Valley Farmers: Cold Storage Survey

SVPA is in the process of developing a grant program that could support cold storage infrastructure on farms in the Snoqualmie Valley. We want to hear from you to inform our development of this program. Please take five minutes to provide your thoughtful feedback.

1. Do you currently have access to cold storage?

2. If yes, please describe what type of cold storage you have/use?

If you do not have cold storage, write N/A.

3. If you do not have access to cold storage, what would be your ideal cold storage solution on your farm?

For example: Walk-in cooler, refrigerated shipping container, shared cold storage facility with other farmers, home refrigerator/freezer, insulated trailer with CoolBot or other mobile solution, CoolBot system in existing infrastructure, or others (please describe)

4. What challenges do you face with your current cold storage options? (Select all that apply)

5. Do you currently grow food for food assistance organizations (for example, food banks/pantries, Farms For Life, Harvest Against Hunger, etc.)

6. Have you priced out the cost of various cold storage solutions for your farm? If so, please share your estimate(s) for your desired cold storage below:

7. Please share any additional comments, suggestions, or questions regarding cold storage needs for farms in the valley.
