Location:

La Conner Flats, 15978 Best Road, Mount Vernon, WA 98273. La Conner Flats is a 230-acre, fourth and fifth generation family farm. Amidst the tulip fields of the Skagit Valley, La Conner Flats is one of twelve Centennial Farms located in Skagit County and is well known for its beautiful gardens and picturesque setting. Each summer, La Conner Flats partners with the Seattle Culinary Academy to give students an opportunity for hands-on learning. Chef instructors and students travel weekly to the farm, where farmland is provided to their program. For seven weeks, the students plant, tend and harvest their produce, as well as hear presentations from local Skagit farmers. In turn, they learn first-hand the critical importance of local food sourcing and sustainable farming, as well as gain a deep respect for the Skagit Valley.
