The Lynden Chamber of Commerce is more than just a business organization. While it is true that our primary focus is the Lynden business community, it is how we choose to achieve that goal that may seem different to some: Stronger business through a stronger community. Members of the Lynden Chamber of Commerce know that a healthy and active community creates a stronger opportunity for success. In a variety of ways, Lynden businesses go above and beyond to support youth activities, parades, the community center, schools, the Fair and a myriad of other groups, organizations and individuals. This tradition makes a difference in our community in so many ways and is a strong part of what has made Lynden what it is today! So whenever possible, shop with those listed in this directory. They are your neighbors and your friends, but most importantly, like you, they make Lynden the wonderful place it is!

Sincerely,

DIRECTORY The Lynden Chamber of Commerce does more than point visitors to the nearest eating establishment, store of their choice or best place to recreate (although they do all that stuff too). The chamber has put together a mixture of events and programs to help serve its members and the community at large.

The Community Cashback program helps keep local dollars in the community. This buy-local program returns 5 percent of all money spent through it to local nonprofits.

Chamber members also have the opportunity to network at events, get featured in brochures and visitor information outreach, sponsor events, share in member-tomember discounts, join the Community Directory listing, have access to educational programs and enjoy customer referrals and reduced participation fees in community events.

For the community, the chamber is active in welcoming new residents with its Welkom Basket program and entertaining the entire region with its annual Farmers Day Parade, Northwest Raspberry Festival and Lighted Christmas Parade.

The Lynden KOA

The Dutch Village Inn

Whether you want a cabin nestled in the trees or accommodations along a tree-lined golf course, Lynden has a mix of options for weary travelers, timeshare members and campers.

(360-354-4772, www.koa.com). A small windmill greets visitors to The Windmill Inn on the edge of town, located conveniently on State Route 539 (360-354-3423, www.windmillinnlynden.com).

For those with Vacation Internationale membership, the championship 18-hole Homestead Golf & Country Club offers a golf getaway in the heart of town. And visitors seeking a little more rugged (but with a swimming pool, pond, mini-golf and more it isn’t all that rugged) place to lay their head, either a campsite, RV site or “Kabin” at Lynden’s KOA is a perfect option

Soaring above Lynden’s quaint downtown is The Dutch Village Inn, set to reopen in mid-2015 with completely renovated rooms designed in authentic Dutch décor with nods from historic Lynden pioneer families. The inn is located inside Lynden’s famous 72-foot-tall windmill, a novel treat for any traveler.

ust about the time school lets out, everyone around Lynden knows it’s ... berry time!

Strawberries are the first to delight with their juicy sweetness. Strawberries used to be a bigger crop in Whatcom County, requiring thousands of kids for picking. Now a few commercial growers remain, plus plenty of U-pick opportunities and roadside sales stands.

You can drive the roads to get the vast view of raspberries — rows upon rows of the well-tended plants stretching out across the countryside. About 100 growers operate at varying size of operation, and some process their berries all the way through to a high-value IQF (individually quick frozen) pack. The soil and climate here can be considered ideal for raspberries. With the development of machine harvesting in the 1980s, planting and production surged. It’s not exaggerating to call Lynden “the capital of raspberry growing” in North America.

The statistics are amazing. Each year on 9,000-plus acres, the county grows about two-thirds of the United States’ red raspberries for processing. The production exceeded 68 million pounds in 2014, blessed by ideal weather. First packed into cold storage, the berries

find their way into juices, jams, toppings and tasty delights of kitchens and bakeries far beyond Lynden’s 12,900 residents. Just raspberries, which are harvested by machine (including the Oxbo line manufactured in town), amount to about a $60 million industry.

Recently, blueberries have come on stronger. Acreage is rising, and the Lynden area leads the state in this crop too. Strawberries, once dominant, still have a niche.

Because of good soil and climate, and the well-honed skills of generations of families (Maberry, Enfield, Rader), Lynden continues to be known as a berry heaven. And the national brands of jams, juices and toppings in the grocery store could very likely come from local berry product.

DIRECTORY

You can enjoy the summer harvest by buying at one of many berry stands or going to a field for U-pick.

Strawberries ripen first in June. Raspberries follow in July and August while blueberries yield into September. Some favorite spots are Barbie’s Berries (384-1260), Bjornstad Farms (398-9874), McPhail Berry Farm (354-5936), Boxx Berry Farm (380-2699), Haugen’s Berries (354-4764) and Kamm Creek Farm (815-4360).

A popular annual Farm & Food Finder guide to local outlets open to the public is available at the Lynden Chamber of Commerce and elsewhere.

Agriculture is celebrated in the Farmers Day Parade on the first Saturday of June, while the Northwest Raspberry Festival each mid-July brings a ton of family fun to downtown Lynden including the serving of thousands of raspberry sundaes. The Lynden Farmers Market is set up at Fourth and Front streets downtown every Thursday afternoon from June to September.

Dairying is a major industry. A new Darigold milkdrying tower, completed in early 2013, has etched its place on the Lynden skyline. The plant takes milk from Whatcom County’s 100-plus dairy farms. More direct to the consumer, Edaleen Dairy has stores both in town (1011 E. Grover St.) and north at the processing site (9593 Guide Meridian Rd). Appel Farms west of Lynden (6605 Northwest Rd.) has added a farm store that features cheeses made right on site at the 500-cow dairy.

Twin Brook Creamery and Fresh Breeze Organic Dairy are two Lynden farms doing direct marketing into regional outlets.

For a delightful agri-tourism treat, check out BelleWood Acres apple farm and its new farm market, gift shop, distillery and bistro (6140 Guide Meridian Rd).

Especially in October, Stoney Ridge Farm (2092 Van Dyk Rd.) is hub of activity harvesting apples and pumpkins. Samson Estates Winery (1861 Van Dyk Rd.) is small and family-owned, using farm berries.

Protected by natural barriers, Whatcom County is an ideal spot for growing certified seed potatoes. This crop is often rotated with dairy silage corn. Again, generations of families (Bedlington, Ebe, Hawley) have built up a tradition of excellence.

Wagon Train Display at the Pioneer Museum

L

ynden’s Front Street has undergone a number of changes recently, many of which highlight the city’s arts and entertainment offerings.

From the Pioneer Museum, to the Jansen Art Center, to the Claire vg Thomas Theatre, there is plenty to choose from.

Just a few doors down from the Lynden Pioneer Museum is Lynden’s newest arts and entertainment outlet, the Jansen Art Center. The center opened in 2012 and added an entirely new feel to the already active art scene in Lynden. Long gone are the cobwebs of two buildings built in the early 1900s, now joined together as an anchor for historic Front Street in downtown Lynden and an anchor for the entire Whatcom County art community.

The Jansen Art Center is ultimately a one-stop place for art classes and rental of art studio space.

The Jansen Art Center

Programs in music, painting, weaving, pottery, glass arts, children’s crafts, jewelry making, dance and much more (yoga, for example) will happen from the early morning to during the day for homeschool students and seniors, and after school and in the evening. Along with classes that may run weeks at a time or simply a few hours in a workshop setting, the “J” as its owners have now dubbed it, has also hosted an array of live musical events.

The Lynden Pioneer Museum adds its own mix of arts and entertainment, with an ever-changing display of life in the West. The museum features one of the world’s largest collections of antique buggies, along with plenty of displays detailing pioneer life. The museum also hosts a variety of themed events throughout the years.

Another recent addition to the Lynden art scene is the Lynden Music Festival. Started six years ago, the festival offers a community wide spectacle of music every fall. With venues throughout the town, including the “J”, local coffee shops, retail businesses, Judson Auditorium, churches and the Lynden Pioneer Museum, Lynden comes to life with the sounds of music through instrument and song.

The Claire vg Thomas Theatre hosts multiple performances throughout the year, combining local theater groups from Lynden and surrounding cities for numerous diverse theater offerings throughout the year.

Lynden Public Schools and Lynden Christian School have active, prolific drama departments, offering many opportunities for quality theater throughout the year.

T

he giving spirit of folks in Lynden can be seen from the bevy of churches located within town right through to the service clubs and organizations. The Mt. Baker Rotary Club (MountBakerRotary.com) has been the most instrumental in helping shape the fortunes of those less fortunate in town, helping to build citywide facilities, including a Million Smiles Playground within the Lynden City Park, or athletic facilities at Lynden High School. Along with the Rotary Club, two Kiwanis clubs

(Lynden Breakfast Kiwanis Club: 354-6947; Kiwanis Club of Lynden: 354-8697; kiwanis.org) and a Lions club (371-0718; lionwap.org/lyndenwa) also help keep up everything from local parades to student activities. Add in Toastmasters (lynden.toastmastersclubs.org) and other communitywide organizations to an active church membership that runs programs for the needy and there’s plenty of opportunities to serve, get involved and meet new people through Lynden’s active service clubs and organizations.

A

live outside. Lynden’s natural beauty and proximity to nearly every imaginable outdoor recreational draw gives Lynden residents a chance to enjoy the outdoors right in their own backyard, or within a slightly extended backyard.

Take a stroll through Lynden’s tree-lined trail system or experience the history of a pioneer homestead at Berthusen Park. Or, if you’d rather, take a short jaunt up Mount Baker for snow sports or head just a few minutes the opposite direction and enjoy water sports on Whatcom County’s bevy of lakes, rivers and Pacific Ocean bays.

Within Lynden, the town offers the county’s premier kids’ playground, the community funded and built Million Smiles Playground. Located within Lynden City Park and adjacent to Fishtrap Creek, an ideal wading zone in warmer weather, the playground offers imaginative fun for toddlers through elementary schoolaged children and the tallest outdoor slide in the region.

Connected by the Jim Kaemingk Sr. trail to other parts of the town, simply hop on the paved path to wander along the creek, visiting Bender Fields — also the home to Lynden’s organized youth and community sports, everything from kids’ soccer to city softball leagues — and the residential communities beyond.

playgrounds, fields, walking trails through the forest, a shotgun club, a remote-control aircraft club and a fully restored pioneer barn on what was the Hans Berthusen 1863 homestead. The hours-worth of walking trails give visitors a chance to take in views of the native landscape, tuck close to a creek or even open up to the farmlands to the west. The 240-acre site is also the home to the region’s largest tractor show, which leaves antique steam engines and other attractions on site year-round.

Beyond Lynden, enjoy a variety of recreational opportunities between Lynden and Mount Baker, from mountain biking to tubing to alpine hiking to downhill skiing. A trip west toward the saltwater shoreline presents another set of recreational choices, including kayaking, ocean fishing, clamming, hiking, birding and simply walking along the beach. With lakes peppering the county, from Bellingham to Lynden to the Mount Baker area, fishing, boating, paddleboarding and more become common summer events. Even a tubing trip down the Nooksack River isn’t far away.

These recreational opportunities only scratch the surface of what Lynden has to offer, whether within its own town (some of the state’s best golf courses are found in and around Lynden) or by using Lynden as a launching point (such as to the San Juan Islands to the west or Canada just minutes to the north). Outdoor recreation is certainly alive in and around Lynden.

Berthusen Park, just minutes outside of town, offers

Infusion Cuisine

M

aybe you’re thinking about dipping your fork into a Dutch apple pie. Or maybe it is the thought of wrapping all your taste buds around farmmade ice cream. These delicious treats and plenty more fill Lynden with edible goodness.

From the traditional Dutch pastry found at the Lynden Dutch Bakery in the heart of Lynden’s historic downtown to old-fashioned diner fare (think Fairway Café) and plenty of steaks to go around (try Steakhouse 9 Restaurant and Lounge at Homestead Golf Course), Lynden has options to keep you fed.

Downtown, the bakery and Dutch Mothers Restaurant offer traditional Dutch favorites. But you’ll find a variety of Mexican, Thai, Greek, Italian, seafood, pizza and

34

other establishments too, not to mention traditional down-home comfort staples. Speaking of comfort, on the westside you won’t have to look hard for Jake’s Western Grill, also a popular catering option.

For the sweet tooth, Edaleen Dairy’s new retail stop in town offers ice cream aplenty, along with an array of sandwhiches. From Grant’s Burgers to Infusion Cuisine and everywhere in between, the variety in Lynden delights.

Of course, if you’re in a hurry, bakery and coffee-centric items can be readily found at some of Lynden’s local coffee shops or its homegrown The Woods Coffee regional chain, with three locations serving Lynden.

ynden’s education system excels, both with academic prowess and diversity of options.

Some of the best public and private K-12 schools in the state sit inside the city limits and one of the state’s top universities is just 20 miles outside of Lynden. And local schools know a thing or two about extra-curricular activities too, with both Lynden and Lynden Christian high schools winning multiple state titles in the last year and the Lynden football team, Lynden Christian girls basketball and volleyball teams and Lynden boys basketball team showcasing some of the best historic and current records in the state. And that doesn’t even mention the success of the local high school drama and music scene.

The Lynden School District boasts three K-5 elementary schools, a middle school, a high school and a parent-partnership campus. With enrollment

38

of about 2,600 full-time equivalent students, the district has over 150 classroom teachers. Lynden Christian School offers a preschool-4 elementary school, 5-8 middle school and a high school, with all three buildings located on one campus in the heart of Lynden. With about 1,100 students, the school also has a Bellingham campus. Other private schools in the area include Ebenezer Christian School, located north of town and founded in 1910, Covenant Christian School, Cornerstone Christian School and many parents active in the 600-family Whatcom Homeschool Association.

Western Washington University, Whatcom Community College and Bellingham Technical College are all located just minutes from Lynden in Bellingham.

Grandiflora

B

uying local has plenty of variety and intrigue attached to it in Lynden. Don’t expect massproduced merchandise to jump out at you.

Instead enjoy the hunt of shopping, searching through handmade items, antique shops and specialty stores to find what you need—and things you never even knew you needed.

Within the historic downtown district, search through the variety of antique stores, turning old barn windows into decorative wall hangings and antique farm parts into trendy garden décor. There’s plenty to see in the antique shops alone, but that isn’t all Lynden has to offer. From high-art at the Jansen Art Center to lost reads at Katz Coffee & Used Books and from furniture to shoes, downtown has a variety of options. You can find comic books and games (Heroes Resource), highend fashion (Cheeks), artisan and used décor (Picket Fence), personalized flower arrangements (Blossoms), clothing (Wear on Earth) and yarns of all sorts (Tangled Threads and others).

For those looking to add that perfect decoration or

42

home accent, Grandiflora offers one of the trendiest shops north of Seattle, with a constantly changing array of items for the home and garden.

And if the outdoors is your thing, you can get all the advice and inside scoops on the best fishing and hunting—not to mention all the gear you need for it—at Dave’s Sports Shop in Lynden’s Fairway Center, also home to a top-flight children’s store, cute décor shop, hardware store, small-town drug store and plenty more. A place like Dave’s Sports Shop is grand central for all fishing, hunting and camping gear, clothing, and licenses, and whatever else is needed to be safe and successful out in the wild. The personal touch of longtime employees and owners knowing their gear and their terrain are an example of Lynden’s service-oriented shopping touch. And, like Grandiflora in the home design world, the owners of Dave’s also visit national trade shows to stay current on the latest trends.

Shopping in Lynden is an activity that offers the chance to explore, learn, and of course, find.

ynden is located close to Guide Meridian Road, which runs straight from the Aldergrove border crossing to Bellingham. Lynden is just a few miles from the border and about 10 miles from Bellingham and just a little farther to Interstate 5.

The Lynden Airport is nestled inconspicuously among the neighborhoods of north Lynden, complete with homes boasting their own private planes and airport access.

The city of Lynden operates the general aviation airport located on just over 12 acres at the north end of town between Depot and Benson roads. The single runway is 40 feet wide and 2,425 feet long with a 20 foot wide taxiway to the south. Jansen Field is at elevation 106 with a visual approach. The airport has a system which provides approach guidance, a lighted wind indicator, a rotating beacon, and an automated unicom that provides up to date wind and temperature information. Houses located on both the north and south sides have access to the airport through agreements with the city and most have hangars for their private planes. The city and members of the local pilot’s association normally host a

summer open house for the public in August with food and refreshments, aircraft displays, and airplane rides for children. For further information, contact Steve Banham, public works director, at 354-3446.

There is a Whatcom Transportation Authority bus station located near the west entrance to town, along with a sizable park-and-ride. WTA provides bus service in Lynden, along with direct routes to Bellingham’s Cordata Station every 90 minutes six days per week, with connecting service to Bellis Fair Mall, Whatcom Community College, downtown Bellingham, and the downtown transit station (providing additional service throughout the community). WTA also provides specialized transportation throughout Whatcom County for those who are unable to use the regular transit system due to physical or mental disabilities, for those 65 or older without other transportation available to them, and for visitors not eligible to ride other para-transit systems because of a disability. For more information or for schedules, call WTA at 676-7433 or visit www.ridewta.com. To request a ride for the specialized service, call 733-1144, TTY 676-6844 or 354-3633.

DIRECTORY

A

wonderful program offered by the Lynden Chamber of Commerce is the Welkom Basket.

This program was put in place to welcome new residents to town and is a great tool for them to get to know their new home. Each basket is filled with coupons and gifts from local businesses and is personally delivered to the residents by our wonderful Lynden Ambassadors, Ada Voskuilen and Virgi Diephuis.

Ada and Virgi share about Lynden, and also take that time to get to know each new family, giving us the ability to discover why they moved here, and what they are looking for.

This program has proven to be an invaluable tool in helping us make the families feel welcome, and it is also the chance for the new residents to get to know Lynden and be reminded why this is such a great place to live. It also gives our members a chance to get information about their business out to the community in a fun and inviting way.

To request a Welkom Basket or to be a part of this great program contact the Lynden Chamber of Commerce at 360-354-5995.
