      <image:title>Blog - From Allen's Desk - April 2023 - Agrotourism</image:title>
      <image:caption>Skagit County is grappling with Agritourism, its impacts to farming, the economic opportunities, and what should or should not be an allowable tourism related use on our farmlands. Late last month, after a year of work, Skagit County released a suite of policy concepts on how to address the growing tourism operations that are popping up within the agricultural lands of Skagit County. You can access the County’s full report here. Skagit County also has a public survey open and is gathering additional public opinion and information. You can take the County’s agritourism survey here. As Skagit County begins deliberations and potential code changes and updates, the SPF Board of Directors believes strongly that: 1. Agritourism activities must be subordinate and accessory to the primary use of agriculture on the site as evidenced by providing proof of farm income (Schedule F or other). 2. Any proposed tourism-related activity must be evaluated on the following criteria: Must relate to and support the primary use of agriculture on the site, Must not interfere with surrounding farming operations and practices, Will provide experiences to visitors that promote and enhance Skagit agriculture overall, and Will not result in any conversion of farmland. 3. Agritourism permits should be required and issued on the basis of level of impact to the long-term viability of agriculture, agricultural soils, the environment, and adjacent farming operations. Activities that have the potential to be large in scale and impact should be required to obtain permits subject to review and renewal every three years.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - From Allen's Desk - Agrotourism</image:title>
      <image:caption>Skagit County is grappling with Agritourism, its impacts to farming, the economic opportunities, and what should or should not be an allowable tourism related use on our farmlands. Late last month, after a year of work, Skagit County released a suite of policy concepts on how to address the growing tourism operations that are popping up within the agricultural lands of Skagit County. You can access the County’s full report here. Skagit County also has a public survey open and is gathering additional public opinion and information. You can take the County’s agritourism survey here. As Skagit County begins deliberations and potential code changes and updates, the SPF Board of Directors believes strongly that: 1. Agritourism activities must be subordinate and accessory to the primary use of agriculture on the site as evidenced by providing proof of farm income (Schedule F or other). 2. Any proposed tourism-related activity must be evaluated on the following criteria: Must relate to and support the primary use of agriculture on the site, Must not interfere with surrounding farming operations and practices, Will provide experiences to visitors that promote and enhance Skagit agriculture overall, and Will not result in any conversion of farmland. 3. Agritourism permits should be required and issued on the basis of level of impact to the long-term viability of agriculture, agricultural soils, the environment, and adjacent farming operations. Activities that have the potential to be large in scale and impact should be required to obtain permits subject to review and renewal every three years.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - From Allen's Desk - Agrotourism</image:title>
      <image:caption>Skagit County is grappling with Agritourism, its impacts to farming, the economic opportunities, and what should or should not be an allowable tourism related use on our farmlands. Late last month, after a year of work, Skagit County released a suite of policy concepts on how to address the growing tourism operations that are popping up within the agricultural lands of Skagit County. You can access the County’s full report here. Skagit County also has a public survey open and is gathering additional public opinion and information. You can take the County’s agritourism survey here. As Skagit County begins deliberations and potential code changes and updates, the SPF Board of Directors believes strongly that: 1. Agritourism activities must be subordinate and accessory to the primary use of agriculture on the site as evidenced by providing proof of farm income (Schedule F or other). 2. Any proposed tourism-related activity must be evaluated on the following criteria: Must relate to and support the primary use of agriculture on the site, Must not interfere with surrounding farming operations and practices, Will provide experiences to visitors that promote and enhance Skagit agriculture overall, and Will not result in any conversion of farmland. 3. Agritourism permits should be required and issued on the basis of level of impact to the long-term viability of agriculture, agricultural soils, the environment, and adjacent farming operations. Activities that have the potential to be large in scale and impact should be required to obtain permits subject to review and renewal every three years.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Valley Our Future Breakfast - Achievement in Agriculture Award Shauna Flores, Sedro-Woolley High School</image:title>
      <image:caption>Shauna Flores, Sedro-Woolley High School graduating class of 2020  Shauna Flores fell in love with agriculture when she was a third grader, showing her rabbits at the Skagit County Fair with her 4-H club.  And since that time, agriculture has kept popping up in her life. It was her dad, Chris Flores, who urged her to take horticulture classes with Mr. Ramsey and Ms. Bennett at Sedro-Woolley High School.   Shauna began learning about greenhouse management, landscaping and horticultural plant science. She was hooked: Shauna was fascinated with different native plants and how the earth has pushed them to evolve. Now, she can’t imagine doing anything but agriculture.  Shauna graduated this June from Sedro-Woolley High School and is enrolled in the Washington State University at Pullman CAHNRS program this coming fall. The College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences is one of the largest and most innovative colleges at WSU.   Flores hopes that a lot more young people become passionate and invested in agriculture for it to be sustainable. .</image:caption>

      <image:caption>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.

      <image:caption>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.</image:caption>
