The San Juan Islands Conservation District (SJICD) is celebrating its 75th birthday on September 9 – and you’re invited! The District will host an outside open house from 4-7 p.m.  at the San Juan Historical Museum, 405 Price Street, Friday Harbor. This event is open to the public, whether you’re a San Juan County resident, businesses, non profit partner or visitor, you are encouraged to attend.

The celebration will feature guest presenters, free giveaways, tasty treats, and a look back through 75 years of local conservation efforts. In addition, the beautiful grounds of the San Juan Historical Museum will be open for self-guided tours from 4-5 p.m. The museum creates the perfect backdrop for this event, allowing visitors to step back in time to 1894, when life on the island revolved around harvest times and ocean currents (which for many of us working in conservation and agriculture it still does!).

Parking is available at St. Francis Catholic Church right next to the event entrance, and for those walking from the ferry, a short stroll up Spring Street will get you there.

Your local Conservation District is also honored to work alongside amazing community partners to facilitate learning opportunities for county residents. From fireside chats on forestry topics, to farm tours and agricultural summits, none of the district’s work would be possible without our diverse and deeply committed community.

We look forward to seeing you on September 9. Any questions can be directed via email to paul@sjicd.org.
