If you're looking for a glimpse of Holland, but only have a day to explore, a trip to Lynden may be in order. If you're looking for a small, safe community to raise a family, look no further. And if you're relocating your business, you'll have trouble finding a better location and environment.

Lynden Washington's Dutch heritage adds a unique touch to one of the jewels of Western Washington, ideally located between Mt. Baker and Puget Sound. The community of 10,000 will celebrate Holland Days on May 4-5, 2007, featuring costumed shopkeepers and Dutch Klompen Dancers, plus authentic Dutch delicacies. A standard feature is a 72 foot high windmill featuring moving blades. The windmill is a backdrop for many pictures in downtown Lynden and is also the anchor for unique shops, and indoor canal and the community theatre.
