Sustainable Connections Farm Tour

Thanks to all 700 of you who visited us on the Sustainable Connections Farm Tour in September 2025. We truly appreciate your support for local farms. Stay tuned for the 2026 Farm Tour, featuring a diversity of local farms who grow and raise your food. On this tour, we co-host an open house with our friends at Grace Harbor Farms, where we process Steensma Creamery products. Visit us and other participating farms around Whatcom County! Please note: Only our creamery location is open to the public on this day. Our dairy farm location is not part of the September tour.
