Snohomish County Council pass Food and Farming Center regulations

EVERETT — On Wednesday, County Council members voted on and passed unanimously regulations for the Snohomish County Food and Farming Center, planned for construction in McCollum Park near Mill Creek.

Fundraising will take place throughout 2026, according to Rachel Dotson, Park Planning Supervisor for the Snohomish County Conservation & Natural Resources Office, during a public hearing July 16. Contract workers will begin phase one construction in 2027.

The project has successfully secured $15 million, spokesperson Meghan Jordan said. The county is now seeking other funding sources, including private-public partnerships. The total amount needed is currently unknown.

On July 16, an initial public hearing took place to vote on the Food and Farming Center regulations. However, some council members expressed apprehension.
