You could spend an entire day just visiting all the island-based companies that market their goods both locally and nationally. Kids' programs, classes, and works in progress are also found here. Vashon's biggest event is the Strawberry Festival in mid-July, when a parade, music, and crafts celebrate the island's unique lifestyle. Parade highlights are performances by the Island Thriftway Marching Grocery Cart Drill Team and the Vashon Old Tractor Society. Dining options on Vashon are more varied than you'd imagine, a sign of creeping civilization that even isolationist islanders don't really mind.
Some locals just saunter by for a tall glass of juice, squeezed to order.
