Elizabeth Whitman, second-generation Chinese American, and Steven Hsieh, second-generation Taiwanese American, began dreaming up Tian Tian Farm in 2020 during apprenticeships at organic farms in Oregon. Tian Tian Farm seeks to promote Asian heritage vegetables in the Seattle market, both to Asian communities and to anyone else who loves to eat the food we grew up eating. We want to share our bounty of Napa cabbage, daikon, bok choy, shiso, and much more with the region’s families, chefs, and culinary adventurers.

Tian Tian Farm is committed to farming with the earth in mind. We aim to minimize waste by using renewable and second-hand materials as much as possible. We also farm according to organic principles, using natural fertilizers and composts to encourage biological activity in our soil, planting herbs and flowers to attract beneficial insects, and sourcing much of our seed from certified organic producers.
