Whidbey Life Magazine’s Fall/Winter print issue captures the magic of life on Whidbey Island. This issue highlights the way our landscape—farms, valleys, views, vistas—inspires and influences Whidbey Islanders. Musicians, painters, writers, actors, all of us seem to draw something from the sights, sounds and scents of Whidbey.

With summer past and daylight ebbing, winter brings with it the opportunity to make our world a cozy one; we’re here to help with suggestions for projects and places. Whidbey has its own particular beauty in the winter and our weekend tour article helps you discover it.
