Linnaea Farm, located on Cortes Island, is protected via one of TLC’s Conservation Covenants. Consisting of 314 acres, the farm has always been central to the history and development of the Cortes Island community. Produce from the gardens has been sold and traded, milk was delivered while the dairy was in operation, and camps with horse-riding activities were available to young people from Cortes and beyond. Trails through the property are still commonly used for horseback riding, hiking or simply as shortcuts for the Cortes residents and tourists. These include trails to Cortes Bay, Easter Bluff, Larson’s Meadow, and the lakeside trail to Hague Lake.
