The food, farming, and fishing culture of Northwest Washington is rich and diverse, and one of the most exciting ways to explore our region’s offerings is by taking a trip on the Farm to Table Trails. The Farm to Table Trails are a project of Sustainable Connections, a local non-profit. The trails are designed to highlight farms, markets, seafood businesses, restaurants, and farm stands throughout Whatcom and Skagit counties, including Barbie’s Berries, Grace Harbor Farms, Widnor Farms, Oak Meadows Farm, Lummi Seafood Market, Community Food Co-op, Samish Bay Cheese, Boldly Grown Farm, Bow Hill Blueberries, and many more!
