Whidbey Island Farm Tour on Facebook |

Welcome!
Whidbey Island farmers are raising all kinds of crops and livestock – from beans to blueberries, from grain to flowers, and from chickens and beef to alpacas and horses. Many are also producing products directly from what they raise. Taste locally made cheese and jam or don a scarf made from alpaca wool. Many farms will be hosting other farmers, food purveyors, and entertainers. So join the kids and go on a scavenger hunt, learn about composting, or sip some wine and listen to music. There is bound to be something for everyone! Make a weekend of it and stay at a Bed & Breakfast and feast at any of the many Whidbey restaurants featuring local farm foods. And the best part - the tour is FREE! To learn about the farms selected for this year's tour, please browse through the farm pages from the "Farm on 2013 Tour" tab at the top of this page. Many of them are open to visitors year round! By June, the 2013 brochure and map will be available for viewing and download. Enjoy! |
