Feature your Business on the Farm & Food Trail!
What is the Farm & Food Trail?
The Farm & Food Trail is designed to increase traffic & visibility for farm and food businesses during the peak Harvest season of September.
Farm & Food Trekkers will be able to use the map to explore the 4 distinct regions of Island County (North, Central, South Whidbey & Camano). Clicking or scanning a region will direct trekkers to a full directory of Local Food Stops, as well as thoughtfully curated Day Treks, allowing both locals & off-island visitors to plan Farm & Food-Filled island adventures!
The Farm & Food Trail is part of Eat Local Month, a celebration of food and farming on Whidbey. Look for physical map brochures, distributed throughout the region. Or pull up the map here!
Why a Farm & Food Trail?
The purpose of the Farm & Food Trail is to increase both local & visitor participation in food and drink experiences throughout the local food network of Island County. The trail shows participants the many ways that we can experience local food throughout the county, from fresh ingredients, to dining and eating out, to activities, to shopping, and more.
