FROM TOP Lummi Island Wild Co-op employees bring in seafood.<br />
Fresh fish from Lummi Island Wild Co-op.<br />
WHO'S<br />
INVOLVED<br />
The list of producers ranges from Bow Hill<br />
Blueberries and Bellingham’s Cascadia Mushrooms<br />
to Lopez Island’s Jones Family Farms,<br />
Sedro-Woolley’s Skagit River Ranch and Oak<br />
Harbor’s Hunters Moon Farm. It includes Silva<br />
Family Farm, home to the tastiest organic Albion<br />
strawberries, and the Lummi Island Wild Co-op,<br />
whose salmon, tuna and caviar offerings will have<br />
you rethinking seafood from here on out.<br />
Another participant is Growing Veterans, an<br />
organization that empowers military veterans<br />
"to grow food, communities and each other," or<br />
something they lovingly refer to as "dirt therapy."<br />
On two farms with 38 acres of organic land, GV<br />
attempts to “end the isolation that leads to suicide<br />
and make sustainable agriculture the norm.” The<br />
result? “Lots of little miracles,” thanks to a community<br />
of brilliant folks who are deeply<br />
dedicated to the mission.<br />
