ebey’s landing national historical reserve

Ebey’s Reserve is a twenty-four square mile mosaic of working farms, trails, residential streets, waterways, and hedgerows that frame the nationally significant historic structures and iconic landscape. The Reserve, on Central Whidbey Island in Washington State, is an intricate patchwork of old and new – an evolving community honoring its heritage.

a living landscape

Established in 1978, Ebey’s Reserve is America’s first national historical reserve. The Trust Board represents local, state, and federal partners. It is a fertile place of natural and agricultural abundance where history stands present among us. It is a community of resilient people of rural character.

stewardship

​By design, eighty-five percent of the Reserve’s working landscape of 17,572 acres is privately owned. Therefore, sustainability and protection rests with all of us. The icons of this cultural landscape are lost incrementally – one barn or house at a time. Stewardship of this land and its historic structures requires significant resources. Without support, as each building falls, our hope of Ebey’s Forever will fade along with the character of this place.
