Located in the fertile Nooksack Valley, these sister cities are located on State Highways 544 and 9 along the Nooksack River. With a combined population under 3,000, these low-key rural communities are a major part of the region’s agricultural heritage. Berries, dairy cattle, carrots, potatoes and a variety of specialty produce are raised in the fields surrounding these small communities. In fact, some of the farms are open during season for people to buy fresh produce and products.
To enjoy the spirit of these two communities, visit in July when they stage the annual Everson – Nooksack Summer Festival. Activities include a pancake breakfast, softball tournament, parade, children's games and local entertainment.
