The San Juans are definitely a destination for people who love good food! Lori Ann has been a farmer in the San Juan Islands for years and there’s no place else she would want to do it. In the "Gourmet Archipelago," there are amazing farmers markets, farm-to-table restaurants, farm stands, and all sorts of farms you can visit to see alpacas, cows, sheep, goats and pigs, chickens and ducks, dairies and fruit orchards.
A fall getaway to the San Juan Islands of Washington State is a great time to visit. You'll meet farmers offering the freshest produce at the farmer's markets, winemakers pouring tasty sips of island grown wines, oystermen and oysterwomen shucking oysters on-the-half-shell fresh from a pristine, cold bay. Try wild-caught salmon with a fresh blackberry sauce, grass-fed lamb, or and handcrafted wine and beer, cider and gins with locally foraged botanicals. These are some of the unmistakable flavors that define island cuisine.
From mid-September through early November each year, Savor the San Juans offers special farm tours, wine dinners and signature tasting events such as Eat Island Grown, where local chefs join with farmers to produce tasty bites. Hops on the Rock, a beer festival on Orcas Island, celebrates Novembeer, with brewers from around the region. And don't miss the Orcas Island Film Festival and the Friday Harbor Film Festival, bringing artists and film lovers to the islands each fall to share their love of cinema.
