Each February\, over 500 birding and nature enthusiasts visit the Stanwood Camano area to celebrate the Snow Geese and other shorebirds that have migrated to this region for years. Due to dedicated volunteers and the generous support of sponsors\, the festival has made a significant impact to our community. \n\n\n\nThe Stanwood Area Historical Society board continues to take the lead on this festival along with a community coalition and are pleased to host the 2026 Stanwood Camano Snow Goose and Birding Festival.

Last year the festival collected data from 390 guests and 85 volunteers. Children under 12 were admitted free and SCAAC provided art activities for them. \n\n\n\nThe festival began in 2006 and has always had a contest to select a local artist to provide artwork for the poster. This year SCAAC led a Call for Art and we have selected a winner. The artist will be showcased at the event and will sign the posters which can be sold for keepsakes. The Camano Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring our event by allowing us to share their billboard advertising on I-5 which attracted many visitors last year according to our data. Visitors come from Anacortes\, Arlington\, Bellevue\, Bellingham\, Edmonds\, Everett\, Kirkland\, Lake Stevens\, Lynnwood\, Marysville\, Mt. Vernon\, Oak Harbor\, Seattle\, Langley\, Coupeville\, Woodinville and many other towns in Western Washington\, especially for the shuttles\, bus tours and lectures.  \n\n\n\nFor additional information please click HERE URL:https://whidbeycamanoislands.com/event/snow-goose-and-birding-festival/ LOCATION:Floyd Norgaard Cultural Center\, 27130 102nd Ave NW\, Stanwood\, WA\, 98292\, United States CATEGORIES:Annual Events,Camano-Stanwood,Family Friendly ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://whidbeycamanoislands.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/SnowGoosePoster2026-e1789162409599.jpg GEO:48.2430603;-122.3708402 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Floyd Norgaard Cultural Center 27130 102nd Ave NW Stanwood WA 98292 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=27130 102nd Ave NW:geo:-122.3708402,48.2430603 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260228T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260228T130000 DTSTAMP:20260112T212215Z CREATED:20260112T212110Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260112T212215Z UID:10033817-1772272800-1772283600@whidbeycamanoislands.com SUMMARY:Fruit Tree Workshops DESCRIPTION:Fruit Tree Workshops: Pacific Rim Institute (January 24 — May 23\, 2026)\n\n\n\nThis series is ideal for home gardeners\, orchardists\, and anyone looking to grow better fruit in the Pacific Northwest. \n\n\n\nJoin local grower Dan Vorhis of Muscle and Arm Farm for a five-part Fruit Tree Workshop Series focused on choosing the right fruit trees for your space and learning how to care for them through the seasons.

Fresh figs are delicious\, and beneficial for your health. And fig trees produce very well on many sites on Whidbey Island.
However\, online information and even nursery catalogs are not always accurate. We will give you the information you need to decide if your site can reliably grow figs\, which cultivars we’ve cropped here\, which ones we are still testing\, and which to avoid. And we’ll show you how to reliably propagate your own trees. The class is made up of a 1 hour slideshow class with questions\, followed by an hour of hands-on propagation. You’ll go home with your own\, self-propagated tree.

Meet our artists and explore the stories behind their work while enjoying a glass of wine and some chocolates. \n\n\n\nIneke de Lange. Ineke will bring samples of the freezing process for her floral images in various stages of development. She will be photographing them during the demo\, showing samples and answering your questions. The process of photographing flowers frozen in blocks of ice has resulted in these ethereal and painterly images. Ineke arranges flowers in water and freezes them. This is a slow process\, usually taking a couple of days. The flowers in ice are then photographed with a macro lens using only natural light. The variability of light and the changes in the formation of the ice produce unpredictable results. Whidbey Art Gallery is a member-owned gallery which includes over 30 talented island artists. We highlight a wide variety of media including\, oil\, acrylic and encaustic painting\, sculpture\, ceramics\, jewelry\, and metal work.  \n\n\n\nMember Show for March “A Touch of Spring”The Whidbey Art Gallery will be hosting a member show for March with the theme\, “A Touch of Spring”.

With a B.S. in Agriculture from The Ohio State University and 45 years of experience in fruit horticulture\, Dan shares practical\, easy-to-apply guidance on planting\, pruning\, and maintaining healthy\, productive trees. \n\n\n\nJanuary 24\, 2026 | Fruit Tree Selection and Care | 10:00am – 12:30pm\n\n\n\nThe introductory class on which the other classes build.

\n\n\n\nClassroom portion addresses the science of pruning; field lab is hands-on in the orchard. Unless it is pouring down rain\, we’ll have the lab regardless of weather (which is usually cold and damp)\, so dress for it.
Class cost: $25 advance payment\, $30 at door. \n\n\n\nMarch 14\, 2026 | Bench Grafting | 10:00am – 12:00pm
\n\n\n\nAddresses the science of grafting\, followed by a hands-on bench grafting lab (apple). Everyone goes home with their grafted tree. Bring your grafting knife if you have one. We provide the rootstock\, scion wood\, and necessary tools and materials.
Class cost: $30 advance payment\, $35 at door. Class size is limited. \n\n\n\nApril 25\, 2026 | Soil Science | 10:00am – 12:00pm\n\n\n\n
Soil is the basis for much of plant agriculture. Knowing your soil is a little bit like knowing how your engine works when you drive a car\, or knowing a little about food science when you cook. Our focus in this class is to give you a basic understanding of key elements of soil science that bear directly on the health of your plants\, and what you can do about it.
Class cost: $25 advance payment\, $30 at door. \n\n\n\nMay 23\, 2026 | Maritime Figs | 10:00am – 12:00pm\n\n\n\nGrow Fresh Figs Outdoors in Maritime Washington
Fresh figs are delicious\, and beneficial for your health. And fig trees produce very well on many sites on Whidbey Island.
However\, online information and even nursery catalogs are not always accurate. We will give you the information you need to decide if your site can reliably grow figs\, which cultivars we’ve cropped here\, which ones we are still testing\, and which to avoid. And we’ll show you how to reliably propagate your own trees. The class is made up of a 1 hour slideshow class with questions\, followed by an hour of hands-on propagation. You’ll go home with your own\, self-propagated tree.
