Food banks across the Peninsula are bracing for a cut to SNAP benefits starting Saturday — Port Angeles has seen households rise from 10,000 in 2017 to 45,000 now with an expected 25 percent increase.

Clallam County’s North Olympic Land Trust selected the Sequim Farmers and Artisans Market and the Port Angeles Farmers Market as its 2025 Farmers of the Year for enhancing local food access and supporting local farms.
