CUSTER — School is often an indoor activity, but Brianna Widen and her family know firsthand the importance of outdoor education. “We have a lot of people who come shop with us who ask all the time if they can do tours,” she said. The Widens own and operate Widnor Farms out of Custer,
and they have seen a demand for farm-based education, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We are homeschool parents ourselves and with everything going on with COVID and with stuff going on, we realized that there was such a vacuum for kids needing outdoor activities,” Widen said. They can’t accommodate
regular tours, but the Widens are instead launching the Farm School at Widnor Farms, an opportunity for small classes of no more than 20 students to take part in 30-minute guided lessons once each month. Following those lessons each month is a 30-minute guided tour to a specific place on the family See Widnor on A2

WHATCOM – After nearly 17 months of closures, the Canadian government opened the country’s border to fully vaccinated Americans on Aug. 9. According to a July 19 news release by the Public Health Agency of Canada, the border reopens to fully vaccinated travelers all around the world on Sept. 7. That news release can be seen in its entirety at https://travel.gc.ca/ travel-covid. As of Aug. 10, the website still states that the border will open on Aug. 9. Travelers will be considered eligible to cross the border 14 days after they have received a dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, or a second dose of the Pfizer, Moderna or AstraZeneca vaccines.
Spray event planned for Thursday evening Earlier this year, families gathered just across the ditch on the Canada side of the border. (Lynden Tribune file photo) Anyone traveling to Canada will need to post their travel information, including proof of vaccination, to the ArriveCAN portal. Travelers will also need to take a pre-arrival COVID-19 test and be able to provide proof of vaccination if asked to show it.

Excessive heat watch in place Wednesday through Friday Late-week highs could reach 100 By Brent Lindquist brent@lyndentribune.com
WHATCOM — Weather forecasters predict more hot weather in
north Puget Sound this week, with an excessive heat watch on the books for Wednesday through Friday. According to the National Weather Service, highs Wednesday could reach the 80s and lower 90s while highs Thursday and Friday could reach 100 in certain areas.
“A dome of high pressure is forecast to build over the Western United States this week resulting in another strong heat wave,” said Mark Ihgalls of Washington State University’s AgWeatherNet Outlook. “This is not expected to be as significant as the June event, but highs in the 90s to near
100 are likely for many in the Western Washington lowlands with the hottest days falling on Thursday and Friday.” The late-June heat wave earlier in 2021 killed at least 112 Washingtonians, according to the Washington State Department of Health. That made it the deadliest
weather event in state history. The National Weather Service recommends staying up-to-date on weather forecasts, drinking plenty of fluids and seeking out air-conditioned rooms. Staying out of the sun and checking up on relatives and neighbors are also recommended.
“Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances,” the National Weather Service’s heat watch advisory notes. “This is especially true during warm or hot weather when car interiors can reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.”
for the class has been the response. Sign-ups for the school began with just the

Widen will host chicken-keeping lessons and kids can learn the life cycle of an egg. The classes will be split into two different age groups, 6 to 10 and 11 to 15 years of age. Parents will need to attend with their children for the younger age group, and Widen said they will have a Montessori teacher working with the farm to help enrich the lessons. Lessons for the older students will be a bit more advanced, Widen said, and will touch on biology, pig farrowing, herbology, pasturing The classes will take place the third weekend of the month starting in September with a class for each age group on Friday and on Saturday.

FARMING FOR LIFE Fair to open long-awaited Ag exhibit on Aug. 12 By Bill Helm bill@lyndentribune.com
LYNDEN — Farming for Life isn’t a museum. It’s an interactive experience. David Lackey, the man who designed the newest exhibit at the Northwest Washington Fair in Lynden, said that Farming for Life “comes to life in an engaging and educational fashion” each time you get your hands on an exhibit. According to Lackey, Phase I of the fair’s Farming for Life Experience is just about finished. Although Phase II is not expected to be ready until spring 2022, Farming for Life Experience will be open in time for this year’s fair, Aug. 1221 in Lynden. The limited opening will feature the majority of planned exhibits, including the Journey of Food and Orientation Theater, as well as dedicated areas for berries, dairy and seed potatoes. Visit nwwafair.com or farming-for-life.com for a breakdown of the planned exhibits. From concept to implementation From conception to implementation, Lackey has been involved with Farming for Life. The project, he explained, is meant to connect with the locals, with tourists, and with the educational community at large. “This is beyond community, a reflection of the diversity of people in this community, specifically the enterprise of farming,” Lackey said. “It really is an enterprise.” Nate Kleindel, president of the Northwest Washington Fair’s board of directors, said Lackey’s mind works “in amazing ways.” “How to share with the Pacific Northwest, Whatcom County, the way he puts it into video and interactive displays and brought it into modern times,” Kleindel said. “His creativity is mind-blowing. Farming for Life showcases the past, displays the present, anticipates the future.” “You don’t know what you’re capable of tomorrow unless you understand today and how you got here from yesterday,” Kleindel said. The 26,000-squarefoot pavilion will include 4,500 square feet of permanent exhibition space and 2,800 square feet of changing exhibition space. According to the Farming for Life Experience website, the exhibit will redefine farming in the 21st century, showcasing the rich history of farming in this region, focusing on the innovations in farming practices, including research, planting, growing, harvesting and distribution of food, enriched by the intergenerational stories of people who make farming

Kleindel looks at Farming for Life as an “agricultural education center to provide a learning opportunity.” “We’re finding more and more that people don’t understand how food arrives to the grocery store,” Kleindel said. “We get into a rut. We just sit down and eat,” he said. With a passion for the Northwest Washington Fair, Kleindel said how important it is “that people understand everything.” “By creating this experience, we are creating an area that supports visitors that benefit the local economy,” Kleindel said. “To open this permanent space for educational and agricultural programs for school-aged children. The support we received from the community allowed us to do this.” Making connections More than 50 local businesses, individuals and organizations have raised more than $4 million to complete the pavilion. Brad Rader, general manager of Rader Farms, helped guide efforts to raise funds to build the pavilion. Recently, Rader
said that he got involved in the project because the United States has a “very safe and abundant food supply, and we take it for granted.” “I wanted us to reconnect people to where their food comes from,” Rader said. “Us in the food industry are pretty close to that. A lot of blood, sweat and tears go into every crop every year. For me, that’s the reason (I got involved). I don’t want to see our food supply go offshore.” Rader explained that raising money for the project was a matter of “sitting down with people and talking with them.” “I want that exhibit to grow,” Rader said. “We’ll need to continue having conversations, figure out how to expand on it. I wish as part of school curriculum that kids had to learn about where their food came from. This is one way to connect with them.” Billy VanZanten, president of the Northwest Washington Fair Foundation Board of Directors, explained that the foundation endeavored to raise money and to raise awareness. Growing up in Lynden meant VanZanten grew up at the Northwest Washington Fair. So have his children. “When I was a kid there was a dairy on every corner,” he said. For VanZanten, it’s a “burden of love to farm.”
That’s one reason he said educating the community, educating people of all ages about farming is important to its survival.
“I think (David Lackey) has presented it well,” VanZanten said. “I don’t think we could have found a better person to build it.”

Stop, rethink state’s long term care law By Don C. Brunell
Time is short, but action is necessary. Gov. Jay Inslee and Democrats who control the state legislature need to postpone implementing the sweeping “Long-Term Services and Supports Trust Program” to determine its future financial viability and find better alternatives for coverage. The new law, also known as the Washington Cares Act, is a mandatory, public, state-run long-term care insurance program. Beginning Jan. 1, 2022, Washington employers must withhold a new payroll tax ($58 per $10,000 of wages) to fund it. Even then, some paying the tax will not benefit. Employees have until Nov. 1 to find alternative
insurance or they will be automatically enrolled in the state program with no future opportunity to opt out. Taxes will be sent to the state’s Employment Security Department (ESD) where they are placed into an insured person’s account. The WA Cares Fund will provide up to $36,500, or $100 a day, for services and support to those who qualify for long-term care, including in-home care, assisted living facility stays, memory care, transportation, adaptive equipment, and respite for family caregivers, Virginia Thomas wrote in Spokane’s Journal of Business. Qualifying for benefits is complicated and some paying the tax won’t receive a dime in payments. For example, if they

plan to retire in the next four years, they would be taxed, but wouldn’t qualify for benefit payments which start in 2025. Another problem is funding. “The State Actuary of Washington concluded that the program will not raise enough money to pay the promised benefit, making further tax increases and larger cuts into employee wages inevitable,” wrote Dr. Edmund Schweitzer, founder of SEL, Pullman. The program is underfunded by $15 billion. The need to address long term care is growing. According to estimates, the Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) figures 69 percent of the U.S. population will require long term care services in their lives for an average of three years.
Washington Care covers one year. The U.S. long term care market was roughly $430 billion in 2019 and is expected to increase by nearly seven percent a year through 2027, Grand View Research determined. Demand for long term care has increased with the growing recognition of unmet elderly needs which were fulfilled by hospitals. The American Association of Long Term Care Insurance estimates more than 8 million U.S. citizens have long term care insurance; however, it is expensive. The average long-term care insurance policy costs $2,466 per year for a couple at age 55; but, if that same couple purchases a policy at age 60, their prices rise almost $1,000 to an annual aver-

Washington Cares requires Washington residency. “Many of our Washington-based employeeowners are Idaho residents. They would pay the tax, but not ever benefit from it. Unlike participants in a true, private insurance program, these employees will have their monthly premiums collected, then distributed by the state to others,” Schweitzer added. “This law has created a dynamic where people are buying insurance not for planning purposes, as they’re intended to be used, but for tax avoidance purposes,” Spokane-based insurer David Wolf told the Journal’s Thomas.

Kathryn Goudberg NobleSchlamm Kathryn “Kay” Noble-Schlamm passed away Aug. 6 at the Whatcom Hospice House after a short illness. She was 97 years old. Kay was born in Cincin-nati, Ohio, to missionary parents William and Anna Goudberg, emigrants from the Netherlands. When she was two years of age, her family moved to the Navajo In-dian reservation in northern New Mexico where her parents were involved in Bible translation and mission work to the Navajo people. They remained there for 18 years during which time Kay attended reservation schools as well as a boarding school in Wasatch, Utah. After two years at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan, she returned
home to teach school in the one-room schoolhouse on the Navajo reservation. After that year, during which she decided that teaching was not her calling, she moved to California where she worked as an electrician in the Alameda shipyards and attended school at Pepperdine College. Kay returned to Calvin where she received a degree as a clinical laboratory technologist. Her career choice led her into biological warfare research at Naval Biological Laboratory, University of California at Berkeley, where she met a handsome fellow student and laboratory worker, William Noble. Kay and “Bill” married, eventually welcoming three children to the family. After the children were in school, Kay returned to her profession, spending her working years in medical laboratories and hospital set-tings. Her final post was in a bush hospital outside of Jos, Nigeria, where her train-ing in old-style laboratory methods was put to good use in a challenging setting. When Kay was in her 60s, she returned to school and obtained her nursing degree. She subsequently married Norbert Schlamm, a retired Navy captain from Oak Harbor, WA. During her retirement years, Kay and Bert enjoyed traveling the world, participating in church and community work, and spending time with their combined families. Kay moved to Lynden, Washington, after Bert’s death in 2004. Even though her final years were clouded by pain, constant illness, and a loss of sight, Kay was able to devote time to favorite activities of writing and reading, thanks to Washington Talking Book and Braille Library and devoted friends who spent hours reading to her. Kay’s greatest joy in her final years was to see a loving bond develop between her church in Lynden, Third Christian Reformed Church, and the church of her childhood, First Navajo Christian Reformed Church of Tohatchi, and continue the work her parents began over 90 years ago. Kay is survived by her children William and Joyce Noble of Columbia, Missouri, Patty and Brian (deceased) Whittaker of Ferndale, Washington, and Nancy and Michael Noble-Urban of Long Island, Maine; grandchildren Jennifer, Daniel (Julie), Paul (Marisa), and David (Faith); and great-grandchildren Nate, Ellie, Ari, and Noah (due to arrive in September).
The family would like to thank the wonderful caring staff at Highgate Senior Living and Whatcom Hospice. Donations may be made in Kay’s memory to Classis Red Mesa LDN Program, P.O. Box 93, Rehoboth, NM 87322 (an organization that trains Native American men and women as leaders in their churches and commu-nities), Mt. Hermon Christian Conference Center, P.O. Box 413, Mt. Hermon, CA 95041, or Whatcom Hospice. A graveside memorial service will be held Thursday, Aug. 12 at Ten Mile Cemetery, Lynden, WA at 10 a.m. Family and friends are welcome to attend. Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Gillies Funeral Home and Cremation Services.

Lola Holtrop
Lola Holtrop was welcomed in the arms of Jesus on Friday, July 30, 2021 at her home in Lynden, Washington surrounded by family. She was 92 years old. Lola was born in Holt County, Nebraska May 28, 1929 to John and Velma (Remington) Widman. She had three sisters and one brother. Lola graduated from Ferndale High School. In 1945 she met Egbert (Bert) Holtrop. They were married in Ferndale on August 6, 1948. Together they had six children; Nancy, Virgil, Lyle, Marilyn, Bruce and Carol.
She was a busy housewife and mother raising six children and also working on the dairy farm. Summertime was filled with haying and spending many hours canning and freezing produce from a large vegetable garden and fruit trees to see us through the winter months. Her favorite times were family holiday gatherings, playing games and doing puzzles.

New medical clinic ‘critical’ to Lynden’s future PeaceHealth breaks ground on 20,000-plus square-foot center By Bill Helm bill@lyndentribune.com
LYNDEN — The City of Lynden has long been designated as under-served rural community in regard to health care services. That’s what Lynden Mayor Scott Korthuis said just before ground officially broke on the site of Lynden’s new medical clinic. “To thrive, healthy communities need a combination of municipal building blocks which includes roads, schools, parks, and other amenities like medical services,” Korthuis said Monday. “Today, we are breaking ground on a much-needed piece to our municipal core. We not only welcome this clinic but recognize how critical it is to our future.” The new clinic, to be named the PeaceHealth Medical Clinic, will be a 20,000-square-foot center for primary and specialty care services, according to an Aug. 5 PeaceHealth media release. “PeaceHealth has long
Ground officially broke Monday on the new PeaceHealth Medical Clinic in Lynden. (Photo courtesy Ellen Korthuis) identified the need to enhance healthcare services to the communities in north and east Whatcom County, the media release stated. Korthuis said Monday that Lynden Family Medicine serves the city well “and will continue to do so into the future.”
“But Lynden has grown from less than 6,000 residents in 1990 to over 15,000 residents today, straining our need for additional medical resources,” he said. “So we are excited and very grateful that PeaceHealth has stepped forward to invest in our community. For
our residents and those of north county, this means closer and easier access to urgent care services and even some types of specialty care.” Lynden’s PeaceHealth Medical Clinic would be located near the southeast corner of Benson and Badger roads in Lynden.
Korthuis explained before the groundbreaking that Phase I of the project is to build a bridge over the Benson Road ditch. The bridge would serve as the clinic entrance. This initial phase should be complete sometime in fall 2021. “We are grateful and
we welcome PeaceHealth into our community and look forward to a long and successful partnership.” Construction on the clinic is expected to begin in spring 2022, Korthuis said Tuesday. “By early 2023 they’re hoping to be in the building,” he said.
Angel Bolton Goering and husband Matthew Goering of Herb Niemann’s Steak House, in Everson, responded to the inquiry.
The Goerings are longtime customers of Sysco and also haven’t gotten their orders, they said. They also haven’t gotten any answers to their questions, and plan to cancel their contract, they said. The Goerings said that thankfully, they said they have other suppliers to use and have been also ordering for other restauranteurs who can’t join those networks. Sysco may not be a household name locally, but it distributes food to hospitals, schools, governmental facilities, as well as restaurants. According to sysco. com, the company operates more than 320 distribution facilities that serve more than 650,000 customers around the world. Sysco is a global business with more than 57,000 associates. Fiscal year, ending June 27, 2020, showed sales of more than $52 billion. The most recent news releases only show
financial updates but no mention of what is happening with their distribution. The Seattle location has existed for 40 years, operating through a warehouse in Kent. Calls on Monday, Aug. 9 to that warehouse bypassed any reception desk with few options to get answers. Likewise, locals in the food business have noticed another food supplier, also open to the public, US Foods (formerly Cash & Carry) on Ohio Street in Bellingham, had many bare shelves over the weekend. Kerry Craig is a store manager who started at Cash & Carry Smart Foodservice in 1997 after being a chef in Seattle and Bellingham. When asked for information, the Lynden Tribune was given a phone contact at a corporate office in West Linn, Oregon where a message stated that workers were working from home.
Where did the food go? Local eateries not getting deliveries By Elisa Claassen For the Lynden Tribune
LYNDEN — Recently, local residents were posting pictures of signs at Red Robin and Dairy Queen. Each sign included a list of menu items the restaurants couldn’t serve. They simply didn’t have them. While going through the drive-thru Friday at the Lynden Dairy Queen location, one employee said the eatery could run out of certain products
over the weekend as well but the owner, he said, was moving product from other local DQ store locations to Lynden. The restauranteur owned several of them and had the ability to do so. By Aug. 8, other social media users noticed Dairy Queen was closed in Bellingham and wondered why. Lynden’s location had remained open, as the employee had said. Why is this happening? Apparently, the local Dairy Queen locations did not get their Sysco food orders. They were running low on ingredients. The owner of the local stores was, according to the employee on the speaker,
taking a truck to the Sysco warehouse in Kent to pick up an order. This situation hasn’t been limited to fast food.

PREP VOLLEYBALL
Golden Eagles eye a return to state this fall Ferndale volleyball hopes to make it eight straight postseason trips By Hailey Palmer hailey@lyndentribune.com
FERNDALE — The Ferndale volleyball team has been to the state tournament the last seven years. The Golden Eagles will get a chance to make it eight straight with the return of the district and state tournaments this school year. Making a deep run against the best competition there is in Class 3A has become a standard for Ferndale, head coach Patti Hoelzle said. “We always talk that we want to be playing our best volleyball at the end of October, which is postseason time,” she said. “That’s a marker of growth and something we’re always striving for and so we’re really excited for that to be back on the table and for us to set our team goals and sights on both the district and state tournament this year.” Ferndale will be returning most of its team from last year, losing only two seniors in Liberty Miller and Jamie Johnson to graduation. However, those are big shoes to fill, Hoelzle said, with Miller and Johnson playing libero and setter. “There are some younger players actively trying to fill those spots in a fairly seasoned group coming back,” Hoelzle said. The Golden Eagles finished their spring 2021 season with a 9-4 record. Hoelzle said the four seniors on the team this year have the leadership qualities needed to take a team to the postseason. Those seniors, Kaelee Bungard, Alyvia Semu, Avery Schneider and Ellie Call, along with the rest of the team got in some of the usual summer activities they do with kids camp and heading to Washington State University for team camp. “We did get to do some things that were more normal for our program this summer which felt really good and promising for this season,” Hoelzle said. The Golden Eagles will take the court Thursday, Sept. 9, at Mount Baker for their first game of the new season.

-Always clean and sterilize jars, even new ones out of the box. You can place clean jars in the oven, set to 150-200 degrees to keep them warm for hot packing. -Make sure to check the rim of the canning jars before use. If it has an imperfection or a chip, don’t use it to can with.
When, why and how of food preservation By Bill Helm bill@lyndentribune.com
CUSTER — In Washington, Apple season is from August until November. Cherry season, June until August. Tomatoes, from August until October. What if you’re late to the party? It may not be easy, and it sure isn’t quick. But canning your favorite fruits and vegetables is about the next best way. Canning is a method of processing and sealing food an airtight container, such as a Mason jar. Not only is it for food preservation, but canning is also an opportunity to make jams and jellies out of fruit, make sauces and salsas out of your tomatoes, onions and peppers, even tapenades or chutneys. You can eat your home-canned goods whenever you want – of course until your supply runs out. Although the average shelf life is about 1-5 years, that’s still longer than putting that last

-Don’t reuse old seals regardless of what you’ve seen on YouTube. Use only new lids softened by placing them in hot water for 5-10 minutes and wipe down the rim of the jar before placing on lid.
apple on the counter and hoping it doesn’t naturally turn into applesauce – or turn into a mess. For the family farm Brianna Widen cans for her family’s ranch, Widnor Farms in Custer. For Widen, canning is a matter of being self-sufficient. “Running a farm and tending to a garden leaves a lot of extra, and saving it for the slow season is perfect,” she said. “Breaking open a jar of homemade rhubarb sauce to put over fresh, homemade ice cream feels like such a treat in the winter.” Widnor Farms cans fruits, vegetables, pickled items, jams and jellies, meat, cherries, green beans, jam, rhubarb sauce and almond butter. “If I can store it, I will can it,” Widen said.

-Do not store finished jars with rings on. Sometimes regardless of how diligent one is, a jar of product will go bad. Gas from decay can build up in the jar and cannot escape if a ring is holding down the lid which will result in the eventual explosion of the jar. Only use rings when transporting jars and then remove them before storing the filled jars.
5
-Do not double stack jars without at least a oneinch air space between them. Jars setting on top of jars cause the same issue as a ring holding down a lid. If the jar fills with gas from decaying food, it will explode because of the weight of the jar sitting on lid holds the lid down. Bonus tip: Can with a friend. It is always more enjoyable and supports the old saying ‘many hands make light work.’ -- Chris Myers

IN BLOOM
Finishing summer strong in the garden By David Vos For the Lynden Tribune
Late summer in the garden can be both a challenging and rewarding time, with increased insect and disease issues at a time when plants are their most productive or beautiful. You’ve cared for your garden this many months, watering, fertilizing, and carefully tending to your plants’ needs — so let’s finDavid Vos ish the summer strong. Here are a few tips this month to keep your garden healthy and looking its best. First, August is a time when disease issues can really show up, especially after a dry summer like we’ve had. While the rain we had last weekend was a welcome sight for even the most sunloving among us — and we could use plenty more — it also creates perfect conditions for mold or powdery mildew to begin to attack plants like roses, dahlias, zinnias, and petunias. With hot, dry weather returning, these disease issues may not spread quickly, but fungal issues don’t tend to just go away on their own, so keep a close eye on plants and spray with a fungicide at the first sign of disease to keep fungus from spreading. Secondly, with a change in the weather often comes an explosion of aphids. Watch for these small green, tan or even black bugs clustering around flower buds and at the growing tips of branches on
your hanging baskets, roses, and other flowers around your yard, and at the first sight of aphids, spray with neem oil, a great insecticide that will also help control the aforementioned powdery mildew. Third, we’re still in the midst of budworm season, as I mentioned last month. If you haven’t sprayed your flowers yet — geraniums, petunias, and calibrachoa, in particular — spray them now with Bonide Captain Jack’s Deadbug Brew to kill these hungry caterpillars and allow your flowers to begin blooming once again. If you’ve already sprayed once and it’s been at least three weeks, I would recommend spraying at least once more yet this season to eradicate any caterpillars that have hatched since you last sprayed. Fourth, as we get into late summer and begin to set our sights on fall, it’s important to stay on track with your fertilizing routine if you want your flowers to continue to bloom. I typically feed weekly with Jack’s Classic water-soluble fertilizers until at least mid-September and weather permitting, my hanging baskets and other flowers will continue to look great well into October. At this point in the season, containers and hanging baskets are their largest and most hungry, so keep feeding and they’ll keep blooming. Fifth, now is a great time to prune your hydrangeas if they’re getting overgrown but

you want to ensure flower buds for next year. After our late June heatwave, your hydrangeas may have taken a beating and look rough anyway, so prune them back now and they’ll still have some time before autumn to set flower buds for next year. Finally, August is the time of year to apply granular insecticide to your lawn to control craneflies and other lawn grubs that may attract moles and damage your lawn over the fall and winter months. Once autumn rains return and the
ground gets softer, moles will begin to get more active, so I recommend applying Bonide Eight granules prior to a rain or lawn sprinkling to kill cranefly larvae that are hatching out this time of year and eradicate other grubs that may be a food source for moles. With the Olympics fresh in our minds, we can all appreciate the value of finishing strong, so take the steps you need this month to keep your garden healthy and colorful and enjoy the beauty of your garden while it’s still around.
Canning: ‘A part of who I am’ Continued from B1
Elenbaas-Hickey canned. So did her mother and her grandmothers. E l e n b a a s - H i c k e y , a Custer resident, cans peaches, pears, apple sauce, green beans, spaghetti sauce, salsa, carrots, diced tomatoes, stewed tomatoes, rotel tomatoes, cucumbers for pickles, and zucchini relish. She also pickles beans, carrots and beets. For good measure, she also freezes jams, fruits and vegetables. Why does ElenbaasHickey can? “We can because it’s (how) we know where our food comes from,” she said. “It’s not full of preservatives. It tastes better.” Because of “too many rules and regulations,” Elenbaas-Hickey does not There’s still time to enjoy the sunny weather and with clear skies comes the opportunity to get that fresh air scent naturally.

sell her product at any of the area’s farmers markets. “I’ve never sold at a Farmers Market because of the food laws and licensing that I would need,” Elenbaas-Hickey said. “Plus, there’s always insurance.” Elenbaas-Hickey did say she would like to teach canning. “Someday I’d love to have a place to have canning classes,” ElenbaasHickey said. Farmers Market Also a Custer resident, Jackie Ferry is CFO of Farmette Fresh. Ferry cans pickles, pie fillings, applesauce, chicken pot pie, vegetable soup base, chili base, salsa, tomatoes for pizza sauce or pasta sauce, fruit, jam and jelly, apple butter, green beans, dilly beans, chicken, beef and broth. For Ferry, she chooses what to can based on what makes a quick meal, and what will last through the winter. “I want food that I know where it came from (and) how it was grown,
and that doesn’t have a lot of preservatives,” Ferry said. Unlike ElenbaasHickey, Farmette Fresh has a presence at the Bellingham, Ferndale and Blaine farmers markets. “I started the business in 2019 and began selling direct to the consumer at the Blaine Farmers Market in 2020,” Ferry said. “I have expanded in 2021 to the Bellingham Farmers Market (Wednesday), Ferndale Market (Friday) and (Blaine Market).” Although her career in canning is relatively short, Ferry also learned about the farm-to-table lifestyle as a child. “I remember picking berries with my mom for jam/jelly and we had an apple tree in our backyard, and we made applesauce,” Ferry said. “It was always a part of what I knew. As I started my own family, it was important to me to know where my food came from and to have wholesome items available. Canning has just been a part of who I am.”
• Invest in a vinyl-coated cord instead of rope; rope will eventually rot and discolor clothes. Larger, sturdier clothespins are best and should be brought in after use to avoid weathering. • Shake items hard before placing them on the line and fold them right after taking them off to help prevent wrinkles. • To avoid the “stiff” feeling, add 1/4 cup of white vinegar to your wash cycle. Rinse load in cold water to help against wrinkling.

MIELKE MARKET
Benchmark milk price loses 75 cents By Lee Mielke For the Lynden Tribune
The Agriculture Department announced the July Federal order Class III benchmark milk price at $16.49 per hundredweight, down 72 cents from June and $8.05 below the inflated price a year ago when Uncle Sam’s Food Box program was buying lots of cheese in response to the COVID pandemic. Last year’s July Class III price was the second highest ever, at $24.54, 6 cents shy of the record set in September 2014. Friday’s Class III futures portended the August price at $16.01; September, $16.49; October, $17.04; November, $17.62; and December at $17.60. The July Class IV price is $16 per cwt., down 35 cents from June but $2.24 above a year ago. The Aug. 3 Global Dairy Trade saw its weighted average fall for the eighth consecutive session, down 1.0% following a 2.9% drop July 20 and 3.6% on July 6. Whole milk powder was down 3.8%, following a 3.8% decline, and lactose was down 3.1%, after an 8.9% drop. Butter led the gains, up 3.8%, after it inched 0.8% lower last time. Anhydrous milkfat was up 1.3%, after it slipped 0.3%. Skim milk powder was up 1.5%, after dropping 5.2%, and cheddar inched 0.7% higher after it gained 1.3% last time. StoneX says the GDT 80% butterfat butter price equates to $2.0308 per pound U.S., up 7.5 cents, and compares to CME butter which closed Friday at $1.6475. GDT Cheddar, at $1.8437, was up 1.9 cents, and compares to Friday’s CME block Cheddar at $1.6350. GDT skim milk powder averaged $1.37 per pound, up from $1.3476. Whole milk powder averaged $1.6322 per pound, down from $1.6920. CME Grade A nonfat dry milk closed Friday at
$1.2550 per pound. Meanwhile, June U.S. dairy exports remained strong. Nonfat dry milk was up 7.4% from June 2020, with most going to Mexico, according to HighGround Dairy, and to Indonesia. Shipments to China were the highest since August 2014. HGD says the first half of 2021 translated into record exports to China, Egypt and South America, helping offset losses to Japan and Southeast Asia. China’s demand has been particularly strong for whey and other proteins and powders. Cheese exports were down 12.9% but HGD says the losses are skewed by the pandemic-driven volumes observed last year. CME prices started August scattered. The cheddar blocks parked at $1.6350 per pound on July 27 and stayed there for 8 successive sessions. Traders apparently took this week off as there was no activity. The blocks are priced 7 cents below a year ago when they plunged 54.75 cents, largest week to week block price fall ever. The barrels fell to $1.3075 per pound on Wednesday, lowest since May 11, 2020, but closed Friday at $1.31, down 8 cents on the week and 20.75 cents below a year ago when they plunged to $1.5175 per pound, a record 71.75 cent crash. Midwest cheesemakers tell Dairy Market News week to week sales remain strong as product moves quickly into food service and grocery channels. Western retail and food service cheese markets remain steady and international demand remains strong, but port congestion continues to cause delays. Spot butter shot up 5.75 cents Monday, then plunged 8 cents Tuesday, and closed Friday at $1.6475 per pound, a half-cent higher on the week and 11.75 cents above a year ago. Retail butter sales have picked up a bit

following a mid-summer lull, but butter market tones are anything but stable. Western cream production is trailing off. Retail sales are strengthening, and food service demand is steady. Grade A nonfat dry milk closed Friday at $1.2550 per pound, down 1.25 cents on the week but 30 cents above a year ago. Dry whey fell to 47.50 cents per pound Thursday, lowest since Jan. 4, but rallied to a Friday close at 54 cents per pound, up 3.75 cents on the week, highest since July 2, and 22 cents above a year ago. More evidence of the deteriorating dairy finances; a lower all milk price and higher corn price continued the slide in the U.S. milk feed ratio. The USDA’s latest Ag Prices report showed the June ratio at 1.60, down from 1.69 in May, and compares to 2.38 in June 2020. The index is based on the current milk price in relationship to feed prices for a ration consisting of 51% corn, 8% soybeans and 41% alfalfa hay. In other words, one pound of milk would only purchase 1.6 pounds of dairy feed of that blend. The U.S. all milk price averaged $18.40 per cwt., down 80 cents from May but 20 cents above the June 2020 average. The national average corn price climbed to $6 per bushel, up 9 cents from May, after jumping 60 cents from April, and $2.84 per bushel above May 2020. Soybeans averaged $14.50 per bushel, down 30 cents from May and the first decrease since August 2020, after jumping 90 cents last month, but are still $6.16 per bushel above June 2020. Alfalfa hay averaged $199 per ton, up $5 from May and $20 above a year ago. Looking at the cow side of the ledger; the June cull price for beef and dairy combined averaged $73.90 per cwt., up $3.10 from May, $2.90 above June 2020, and $2.30 above the 2011 base average of $71.60 per cwt. Milk cow replacements averaged $1,310 per head in July, unchanged from April and unchanged from July 2020. The Aug. 3 Daily Dairy Report points
out that dairies are also dealing with rising transportation and labor costs. The DDR cited U.S. No. 2 retail diesel for the week of Aug 2 at $3.37 per gallon, 94 cents higher than a year ago. Thank God for pizza, or finances would be a lot worse. Pizza uses a tremendous amount of cheese and remember, it takes about 10 pounds of milk to produce one pound of cheese. One of the biggest names in the pizza business today is Domino’s, but Domino’s has seen growth nearly six times faster in international markets than in the U.S., according to the July 23 Dairy and Food Market Analyst (DFMA). The company reported that it opened 203 restaurants in foreign markets but only 35 in the U.S. in second quarter 2021. Growth was concentrated in China, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, Mexico and Turkey, according to the DFMA, with impressive sales growth as well. The company said its total second quarter sales rose 17% year over year, driven by much-higher sales in international markets with same-store sales up 14%. Samestore sales in the U.S. grew just 3.5%, lapping a difficult-to-beat increase of 16% in second quarter 2020. Speaking in the Aug. 2 Dairy Radio Now, DFMA analyst and editor Matt Gould pointed out that it’s not just pizza driving cheese sales, but credited quick service restaurant sales in general, which have soared, as we came out of the pandemic. McDonalds reported U.S. sales were up 26% from a year ago, he said, and global sales were up 41%, although that’s measured against weak comparables a year ago. He said that People are getting out, getting together, and going thru drivethrus. Considering overall cheese consumption, the sales are quite strong, he said. Comparable sales are also occurring in other chains, according to Gould, such as Burger King, Wendy’s, Chipotle, Papa Johns, Little Caesars, and others are performing on all cylinders right now, he concluded.

Classifieds COUNTY-WIDE
ANY RIGHT, TITLE, ESTATE, LIEN, OR INTEREST IN THE REAL ESTATE DESCRIBED IN THE COMPLAINT, Defendants. No. 21-2-00739-37 SUMMONS BY PUBLICATION Judge: David E. Freeman THE STATE OF WASHINGTON TO DEFENDANTS: You are hereby summoned to appear within sixty (60) days after the date of the first publication of this Summons, to wit, within sixty (60) days after the 4th day of August, 2021, and defend the above-entitled action in the above-entitled court, and answer the complaint of the Plaintiff Janet Myers, and serve a copy of your answer upon the undersigned attorneys for Plaintiff, Wolf & Lee, LLP, at their office below stated; and in case of your failure to do so, judgment will be rendered against you according to the demand of the complaint, which has been filed with the clerk of said court. This matter involves a claim by Plaintiff that property conveyed to her by her mother by way of a Revocable Transfer on Death Deed (“Deed”), recorded under Whatcom County Auditor’s File No. 2017-1200408, contained an incorrect legal description for the property as a result of a scrivener’s error. Plaintiff seeks a reformation of the Deed to reference the correct legal description for the property and to thereby quiet title to the property in her name exclusively. Plaintiff maintains that the correct legal description is that contained in the July 20, 1984, Quit Claim Deed from Lonnie Collins to Roy and Elsie Burgy, recorded under Whatcom County Auditor’s File No. 1485498. In the alternative, and to the extent the Deed did not convey the property to Plaintiff, her mother had all right, title, and interest in the property at the time of death, and Plaintiff was entitled under her mother’s will to all residue of her estate. Plaintiff thereby alternatively seeks an order and judgment quieting title to the property in her name exclusively. DATED this 26th day of July, 2021. Mark J. Lee, WSBA #19339 Haylee J.

Notices 425-Meetings DO YOU LOVE BASEBALL AND HISTORY? Ever heard of vintage baseball? More than 200 teams across the country play baseball the way they did before 1900. Most of those teams even play ball the way they did before the Civil War. I used to live in Camp Verde, Arizona, but now I live in Bellingham, Washington. In Arizona, I played in an eight-team league that played ball by
rules from 1860. I’d like to bring the vintage baseball movement to the PNW. I’d like to start a few teams to play ball against each other. Vintage baseball is about camaraderie, friendship, exercise, love of baseball and appreciation of history. Anyone and everyone is welcome to play. Although we play to win, sportsmanship is king. Maybe you don’t want to play or cannot play ball any more, but you like the game and would like to keep score, or maybe be an umpire? Well, we’d love to have you come out. We also need places to play ball. Baseball in its infancy was played on open fields. Maybe you can’t play any longer but you have an open field that you’d let us play ball on. Interested in learning more or participating in some way? Please message me if you live anywhere in Whatcom County, or anywhere in Washington, and you’re interested in getting involved. Please email me at bch.cameraeye@gmail.com or call 928-300-0522. 6-23-21-TF-425
