This year’s event will be held on San Juan Island and will consist of in-person workshops during the day and an evening community social at the San Juan Island Grange on Friday, and an in-person conference day on Saturday at the Friday Harbor High School.This year’s theme, “Growing Resilience,” calls us to deepen our collective response to climate, land, and economic challenges—and to celebrate what’s possible when island communities come together to strengthen local agriculture, food, fiber, and beyond. Keynote speaker for 2026 will be farmer, author, and educator, Helen Atthowe. A national leader in ecological farming, Helen brings more than 35 years of experience linking food systems, conservation, and soil health. Her recent book, The Ecological Farm, offers a visionary yet practical guide to no-till, no-spray, living-mulch systems that work in partnership with nature.The summit’s programming is rooted in your ideas and priorities. Whether exploring whole-systems approaches or diving into specific practices, techniques, and tools, the event aims to deepen our collective commitment to stewarding these lands in ways that support thriving ecosystems, communities, and individuals. We will also continue to center, throughout the summit, what it looks like to be in right-relationship with the original stewards of these lands, the Coast Salish Peoples.The San Juan Islands Agriculture Summit is a valued annual event that provides a unique opportunity for the food and agricultural community from across the islands, and beyond, to gather. Designed as a space for inspiration, education, and camaraderie, the Ag Summit features a keynote, hands-on workshops, presentations by farmers and regional specialists, panel discussions, meals and social events.Summit Details:Friday, February 27: Morning & Afternoon Workshops and an evening social7:00am - 9:00am Summit Hub and gathering space at the San Juan Island Grange.
