Hi everyone!

I am doing a lot of research for relocation to the North West.

What are some "crunchy" areas of the state?

Good farmer's markets and natural food stores, etc.

I'd prefer somewhere with 100k or less people.

I'm not familiar with Washington. Any pointers would be great!

Many thanks!!

Many areas. What else are you looking for? Are you looking at the eastern part of the state (hot summers. cold winters), or the western (mild seasons, many months with little sunshine)?

Leavenworth? Would not have guessed that. I thought that was a Bavarian village thing.
I guess I will have to visit. Always been curious, now I am really intrigued!
Thanks
