The focus this year is on resilient living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Living on an island is different.&nbsp; We have ferries, rural roads, deer, private septic systems and wells, an abundance of trails and other outdoor opportunities, different recycling rules, and fewer services and shopping options.&nbsp; We have community.&nbsp; Although sometimes inconvenient, these things all make our island what it is and are why most of us moved here in the first place.&nbsp; Learn how to live life to the fullest here on Whidbey Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you live on Whidbey, whether you just moved here or you have been here for a generation or more, this free event will help you. Find out about the best trails, how to live with a septic system and what programs are available for seniors. Learn about the free bus system, how to manage yard waste and recyclables, prepare for emergencies, prune an orchard, start a garden, or landscape for wildlife. Volunteer to help clean beaches, maintain trails, greet park visitors. Sign up for educational programs, or get expert advice on forest or pasture management, all in the Freeland Trinity Lutheran Hall. Bring your questions and meet your neighbors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Demonstrations and Presentations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Demonstrate how-to&#8217;s<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Community partners share their expertise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parking Lot demonstrations of emergency vehicles, electric vehicles, and a transit bus<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Talks and Instructional Tables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Topics Include:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Public Health and Safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emergency Preparedness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Community and Volunteering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Natural Resource Management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wellness and Healthy Living<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stewardship of Resources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Educating New and Present Islanders<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/island-county\/whidbey-101\/partners\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button \">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tWhidbey 101 Partners\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-accordion  wsu-accordion--size-small  wsu-color-background--gray-5\">\r\n    <h2 id=\"unique-id-1__17702\" class=\"wsu-accordion__title\">\r\n        <button class=\"wsu-accordion__title-button wsu-accordion--toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"unique-id-1__content\">Our Partners<\/button>\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <div id=\"unique-id-1__content\" class=\"wsu-accordion__content\" aria-labelledby=\"unique-id-1__17702\">\r\n        <div class=\"wsu-accordion__content-inner\">\r\n            \n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.civilityfirst.org\/\">Civility First<\/a> \n<ul>\n<li>Civility first so we can work together! <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><p><a href=\"https:\/\/citizensclimatelobby.org\/\">Citizens Climate Lobby<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><p>Solutions to climate change<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.langleywa.org\/government\/citizen_boards\/climate_action_committee.php\">Climate Crisis Action Committee<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Electric Vehicle Demonstrations and educational resource<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><p>Community Health<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Learn about the WIC program<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fofmedicalsupportfund.org\/\">Friends of Friends Medical Support<\/a>\n<ul>\n<li>When our South Whidbey neighbors are faced with unexpected medical costs, we\u2019re here to help<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.friendsofwhidbeystateparks.org\/\">Friends of Whidbey State Parks<\/a>\n<ul>\n<li>Help care for the places you love!
