Find Dry-Farmed Produce Near You
The Dry Farming Institute maintains a directory of farms growing crops without irrigation or with minimal water use across the Pacific Northwest. These growers are demonstrating that delicious, nutrient-dense food can be grown in harmony with the rhythms of the land, and we’d love to help you find them!
When you ‘Buy Dry’ you are supporting water & soil stewardship and regenerative, resilient food systems!
Why Dry-Farmed Produce?
Dry-farmed crops develop deeper root systems and draw on soil moisture stored from winter rainfall — producing fruit and vegetables with more concentrated flavor, longer storability, and a lower environmental footprint. When you buy dry-farmed produce, you’re supporting farmers who are adapting to a drier future and tending their land for generations to come.
PLEASE NOTE: Directory Currently Being Updated
We are in the process of verifying and updating all listings in our directory. If you are a listed grower and haven’t heard from us, watch for an email from DFI this week.
Are You a Dry Farming Grower?
If you grow dry-farmed crops and would like to be listed in our directory and/or have access to dry-farmed product labels and marketing materials, please fill out this request form. Listings are free and help connect your farm with consumers, chefs, and markets who are actively seeking dry-farmed produce.
We ask listed growers to confirm their details annually to keep the directory up to date. A small donation to support DFI’s work is appreciated but never required.

The Future of This Directory
We envision this directory growing into an interactive map featuring dry farmers nationally and internationally, showcasing farms that demonstrate soil and water stewardship while growing tasty, nutrient-dense food for their communities.
Together, we can thrive with less water.
If you’d like to support the development of this resource, or if you’re a developer, designer, or organization interested in partnering on it, we’d love to hear from you.
