About Us

Meet Our Team

Star Route Farms is presently certified by Marin Organic Certified Agriculture (MOCA). After 41 years, we know that organic farming is the best way to build soils, conserve water, maintain habitat, and nurture productive farmland for our grandchildren. Today we farm 40 acres in Bolinas and 80 acres in Thermal, Ca. The farms are managed by Annabelle Lenderink and Nick Civetz.

Besides our fruits and vegetables we pride ourselves on the fine men and women employed in the fields, offices, and delivery trucks who want you to be satisfied with our efforts and your purchases.

Our Partners

As part of our quest to produce the highest quality fruits and vegetables possible we proudly support local efforts in maintaining sound agricultural practices. Farmers are able to provide healthy, nutritious, delicious food that is in balance with nature. The use of pesticides in farming has an innumerable amount of negative consequences. The same chemicals that are applied to vegetables in order to kill insects not only find their way into the environment but also remain on the food even after being washed. Organic produce is the sustainable alternative to industrial agriculture.

With this in mind, we partner with organizations that align with our practices: The Agricultural Institute of Marin, The Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture, and Marin Organic Certified Agriculture (MOCA)

We continue to use the time-honored organic techniques of natural fertilizer and cover-cropping–growing humus building plants to turn back into earth–in order to enrich our soils and create healthy crops.
