Skajit Valley

[Jameel Hyder]

Skajit Valley, approx. an hour and half drive from Seattle, comes alive in spring. Towards end of March, early April the daffodils and tulips bloom and they officially kick off the tulip festival by around end of March. These are some of the largest tulip fields this side of Holland.

A couple of images to give you a sense of possibilities. Will post some in nature forum of the variety of tulips that they grow.

C&C Welcome as always

Beautiful. Get your mud boots ready. We have big set of fields down near Woodburn that are quite similar down to and including the mud.

Just beautiful.

I have heard about Woodburn but never ventured there.

The rows upon rows of flowers are intriguing.

Nice shots. I'll be posting some in a minute from the same area yesterday looking for snow geese and trumpeter swans who hang out there in the winter.

Thanks. What you are seeing is part of one field. There are many such fields there. These are harvested and sold across the country.
