buying the farm

The Yakama Nation recently expressed interest in buying the farm — now a 1,600-acre company that supplies top grocery chains — seeing an opportunity to improve the community’s access to healthy produce.

Before buying the farm, the family watched YouTube videos of Tropical Storm Irene’s devastation a decade ago.

Meanwhile Plaid Cymru said the purpose of buying the farm remained unclear.

Moving to Whidbey, buying the farm and launching the business was risky for the couple.

The number of companies buying the farm’s milk has shrunk to a handful, he said, and none are local.
