Greenbank Farm

Beautiful grounds to walk and explore. Art galleries, trails, and views make it a peaceful and scenic spot. We enjoyed strolling with our dog and poking into a few of the shops. The Pup shop was our dogs fav of course. I enjoyed the shop with all of the cheese and jams. I could have spent more time here.

We take our Australian shepherd, Luna, for off leash walks. Love the trails. She gets her energy out, and for the most part, there are well-behaved dogs and good dog parents. I have had only one time that some elderly dog parents do not pay attention to their standard poodle. This dog came up to us and acted like it wanted to play. Then it tried to bite my leg. My dog redirected her. When I approached the owners, they shrugged it off. I've not seen them back. Beware of the standard cream colored poodle. Everything else has been great! We enjoy grabbing some doggy treats at the new pet shop, and we pick up cheese for the humans after our walk.

What a lovely place. Loved all the shops! An amazing place to take your dog to run their heart’s content in the leash free zone. The view is beautiful.

Great place to spend a relaxing few hours! Shopping, wine tasting, walking through the gardens and having a bite to eat.

Nice place for a hike with views to the Olympics and the Cascades along the ridge trail. Trails thru a forest connect to the ridge trail. Excellent big off lease dog park encompasses all the trails. Shops are “meh” and the cafe has quite limited offerings on the menu. The master gardeners demonstration garden is a gem! Photo is in the garden.

The WSU Master Gardener gardens were amazing. Spent 2 hours just wandering. Then bought wine and cheese and presents to take home.

Just off Highway 525 in the heart of Whidbey Island, Green Bank Farm feels like a place the rest of the world forgot in the best possible way. Once a dairy and then a commercial loganberry farm, it was preserved by local effort and now serves as a public commons—part working landscape, part quiet retreat. There’s a small wine shop, a café, the Green Bank Pantry for sandwiches and snacks, and a handful of low-key art studios and native plant nurseries. But most of the space is open. In spring, tall grasses and berry-laden shrubs rise across the fields. In autumn, willows, maples, oaks, and other hardwoods flare gold, red, and rust. Secluded wooden benches and Adirondack chairs are tucked into corners where you can sit undisturbed, watching hawks circle or the light shift across Admiralty Inlet. From the ridgeline you get views toward both Saratoga Passage and the Olympics. To the north, farm trails merge into a broader network of wooded paths. South Whidbey State Park is nearby if you want thicker rainforest. What makes Green Bank especially rare is its remoteness: it’s nearly equidistant from the Clinton ferry and the Deception Pass bridge to Fidalgo. Drier than the rest of the island, with cool breezes and long western light, it feels a little like the Pacific Northwest’s answer to Napa—without the pretense.

My wife and I made a quick stop as we travel back to the ferry terminal. We purchased s slice of the Marianberry and apple pie. They were delicious. We also visited the other businesses. During my next visit, I will try the cheese and wine shops at this location.
