Saving Whidbey’s Historic Places & The Stories They Hold
We at Historic Whidbey believe the legacy of previous generations of all cultures lives in the places we share with them - the beaches, forests, and dwellings. Tangible links to our past, our historic buildings are “Witness Houses” - stages where our shared stories can be revealed, and lessons taught across the years.
Historic Whidbey strives to channel those untold stories, to engage the public and inform the future of this special place. We are preservationists, business owners, historians and educators with a common mission—preserving historic places and the important stories they hold.
