About Snow Creek

Grown using the rack-and-bag method in Samish Bay, north Puget Sound, one of the richest and most productive bays in the Sound thanks to nutrients from the Samish River and the twice-daily flush of water from the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

In plain words: mild, earthy, sweet, melon, with balanced salt.
