New Farm Products Guide available

WSU Cooperative Extension in San Juan County has published the San Juan Island Farm Products Guide, a guide to the bounty and diversity of San Juan Island farm products. Find the freshest ingredients for dinner, nursery plants for your yard and garden, comforters to sleep under and scarves to knit, flowers, seafood, honey, and the perfect outing … a farm to visit.

Copies of the San Juan Island Farm Products Guide are available for free at the WSU Cooperative Extension Office, 221 Weber Way; and at the San Juan Island Library. This new guide and the Lopez Island Farm Products Guide are also available on the WSU/San Juan County website at sanjuan.wsu.edu/fagriculture.htm

The San Juan Island Farm Products Guide was produced and published with a grant from the USDA’s Food Security Program.
