Did you know Washington State designated September as ‘Eat Local Month’ ? Your Land Bank currently protects 29 operating farms via conservation easements (CE’s) and ownership, leasing 500 acres of ag land to farmers and ranchers across the County. We’re excited to shine a spotlight on our agricultural partners who bring fresh, sustainable foodstuffs to our tables. From zingy cheeses to farm-fresh veggies to pasture raised meats, there’s no better time to enjoy our Islands’ bounty! Stay tuned for our first highlight – San Juan Island meat producer, Rob Waldron of Talking Horse Ranch, at King Sisters Preserve. #sjclandbank #farmland #EatLocalWA #WashingtonGrown
