Food Starts in the Magic Skagit
From Skagit soils to Seattle supper.
Few places in the world produce the diversity and quality of crops grown here.
Skagit Valley farmers grow more than 90 different commercial crops:
• Vegetable seed that supports farming around the globe
• Potatoes, berries, and grains
• Fresh vegetables for families across the Northwest
• Livestock and specialty crops
World-class soil makes this valley one of the most productive places on the planet.

Enjoy Today, Protect Forever
The open space we enjoy exists because of farming.
Close enough for a day trip, the Magic Skagit feels a world away from city life. But that same proximity puts farmland at risk.
Farmland in the Skagit Valley faces growing pressure from:
• Residential and commercial development
• Energy infrastructure including battery storage systems and solar fields
• Environmental mitigation for dam impacts upriver
Without your help, the farms that shape this landscape – and the food they produce will disappear.
Every acre matters.
