We are in a time of extraordinary crisis and challenge. Through this all we need to make sure we all can be nourished, both physically, emotionally and socially.
This website is taking on the challenge of providing information to the South Whidbey community so we can grow food for ourselves, and work towards local food security at a time of future unknowns.
Growing takes time, and it takes work. So let’s start now to prepare the soil, plant the seeds and starts, and nurture the crops.
Gardening is joyful, we can work safely, and time outside lifts the spirits. Let’s grow food for ourselves, our families and our community!
The information in this website will be relevant to gardeners in the Pacific Maritime growing region. We will be updating and adding information as fast as we can. Please email comments and suggestions to cultivatingcommunitywhidbey@gmail.com.
To get you started here is an excellent planting plan, with suggestions for veggies to start indoors, from our local seed company, Deep Harvest Farm.
