Harry’s Forest Forever, South Whidbey Island

Saturday, July 25
10:00 am – noon and 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Last December, Mr. Harry Case worked with the Whidbey Camano Land Trust to make sure that his 176 acre forest will never be developed and will stay a forest forever. As a result, Harry and his “Forest Forever” on South Whidbey Island were recently featured in the Seattle Times and on KIRO 7 news, where he was one of five finalists for the Cox Conserves Heroes award (see video). Now you can see this forest first hand by joining the Land Trust on a guided walk. Led by Land Trust staff and Harry’s grandson, Shawn Connor, see these beautiful woods and learn more about the forest, how it is sustainably managed, and why it was protected by the Land Trust.
