Can someone recommend a CSA farm share, grocery-delivery service, and milk-delivery service in Seattle?
My family is moving there next month, and I'd appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!

Do check to see if your neighborhood has a farmer's market. West Seattle, the U-district and Ballard are open year-round, most of the rest open in May.
Smith Brothers Farms offers home milk delivery for free if your order is over $10. I've never used the service, but one of my favorite cafes does. I tend to pick up my dairy on my way home from work.
Oh, and I like Full Circle Farms as a CSA, but if you go to one of the farmers markets a lot of the same farms will be there and you can talk to them about their programs.
MBW, welcome to our part of the world. Regarding CSA's, here is a list http://www.freshpickedseattle.com/csas-and-produce-deliveries-ov/ My favorites are New Roots, Oxbow and Full Circle Farms.
We have a wonderful organic grocery coop with far better prices than Whole Foods PCC Natural Markets that has been around for over 60 years http://www.pccnaturalmarkets.com/
Regarding grocery delivery, QFC delivers as well as Amazon. Dont' know about milk.
There is so much wonderful, fresh, organic food around here shopping is a joy.
We have a year round Farmer's Market on Sundays - Ballard Farmer's Market which is incredible.
You will enjoy it here!
