Savor the Flavor of the San Juan Islands this Fall

“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.” — Emily Brontë. As the leaves begin to turn, the San Juan Islands come alive with the true flavors of the season. From cozy farm dinners and wine tastings to scenic harvest tours and indie film festivals, Savor the San Juans invites you to experience autumn like never before—through the people, produce, and passions that define island life. From late September through early November, visitors can enjoy a lively blend of agritourism adventures across San Juan, Orcas, and Lopez Islands.

Savor the San Juans highlights the “gourmet archipelago” nature of the region — where agriculture, culinary craftsmanship, and natural beauty converge. From fresh oysters shucked by the sea to warm apple crepes at farm kitchens, the experience is steeped in authenticity and local pride. Recognized by the James Beard Foundation and Good Food Awards, the San Juan Islands continue to gain acclaim for their farm-to-fork and tide-to-table food culture.

Take advantage of specials to affordably savor farm tours, demonstrations and workshops on Lopez, Orcas and San Juan Islands during harvest season.
