Notes from the Island — Sept. 24

Posted September 24, 2022 at 9:30 am by

  • It was a rough day for Friday Harbor High School sports yesterday. The football team lost 41-0 at Meridian High School in Bellingham and boys soccer lost 3-1 at Coupeville High School.
  • High school girls soccer takes on Mariner High School at noon today at Linde Community Fields. Volleyball plays Granite Falls in a road game at 2 p.m.
  • For the first time in 24 years, Sweet Retreat is closing for a week so that the staff can take some well-deserved time off. It’ll re-open on Monday, Oct. 3.
  • There’s a Grange-sponsored cider pressing event happening today at Sweet Earth Farm — 16 Sweet Earth Ln., just off West Side Road — to welcome new Grange members. Anyone is welcome to attend. The pressing starts at 3:15 p.m., but you can also arrive early for the 2 p.m. tour of the farm. If you have extra apples of pears, bring them with you.
  • Saltwater Farm is hosting an open house tomorrow from 2-6 p.m. for people interested in hosting an event there, or just curious to see what the property looks like.
  • San Juan Island Food Co-op now has kiwi berries from Mitchell Bay Farms and French fingerling potatoes from Glad Acres.
  • Thanks to our advertisers for their continued support of the San Juan Update — including San Juan Community Theatre.
