The ‘Napa Valley of Matcha’ takes shape on Whidbey Island
Vale Concepts announced Vale Farms, the new 365-acre tea farm and future visitor destination on Whidbey Island, on August 31st, 2026. The project aims to establish a new chapter for tea cultivation in the Pacific Northwest. Since the start of this year, we’ve been helping shape this unique destination along with Zimmerman Architecture, where agriculture, hospitality, and landscape come together to create an experience rooted in place. As the vision for Vale Farms evolves, the project is already sparking conversations about the future of tea farming and agritourism in the region.
