Agriculture
Washington State University Jefferson County Extension supports a vibrant and visionary food and farming sector in Jefferson County.
Our county-based educators leverage the broad resources of a major university to resolve issues and create a positive future for the residents of Jefferson County.
Our local food and farming programs have supported successful development of:
• Organic farming practices that build healthy environments for humans and animals
• Value-added food products
• Port Townsend Farmer's Market: Reopens in early Spring
• Chimacum Farmer's Market: Reopens in May
• Integrated Pest Management minimizing the use of pesticides
• Salmon friendly farming
• Conservation of working lands, including farms, forests and historical vistas and locations
