So, what are we looking at here?
Meet Sara Owens — local sculptor, blacksmith, and maker behind Morphology Metal Works, here on Whidbey Island. Sara has been commissioned to create something special for the entrance to Generations Place.

What you're seeing is an architectural arbor: two stylized trees, hand-forged in steel, that arch over the front entrance to welcome residents and visitors' home. Tucked into the ironwork is a family of robins — a nod to the community and continuity that Generations Place is meant to embody.

It's the kind of personal detail that says: these homes were built with care. The final touches are being installed this week!

Wow- Look at the progress over at Generations Place! A little color really brings the site to life.

🏡✨ Homegrown Solutions: Building What Comes Next ✨🏡

Yesterday, we were proud to host our Carter Work Project ~ Rural Rally Roundtable Discussion, bringing together local leaders, planners, and housing partners from across Island County to tackle one of our community’s biggest challenges—affordable housing.

From updates on comprehensive plans and zoning changes to conversations around equity, growth, and reducing barriers to housing, this roundtable focused on real, actionable solutions for the future.

Together, we explored how our communities can plan for growth while ensuring access to safe, affordable homes for families at all income levels—because stronger communities start with a place to call home.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the conversation, shared their expertise, and is committed to building what comes next. 💜

If you've been looking for a moment to support affordable housing solutions, this is it. Today is GiveBIG, a one-day giving event across Washington state, where support for local nonprofits goes further thanks to broad participation.

Generations Place is opening this summer in Langley, the first new affordable apartments there in more than 35 years. It happened because this community decided it should.

We're ready to do it again, and we need your help to get there. Island Roots is now in early planning for several more projects across Island County, and your gift today helps fund the site assessments, partnership building, and community conversations that must take place before a single shovel goes in the ground.

Local problems need local solutions, and local resources to make it happen. Give BIG today: https://mtyc.co/xeaagg

Generations Place is continuing to take shape inside and out. Flooring and appliances are now being installed, insulation is in, and the interiors are beginning to look and function like real homes rather than a construction zone!

Outside, new sidewalks and street parking along 2nd Street and DeBruyn Avenue are now open for public use. Thank you to our neighbors for your patience throughout the paving process and ongoing construction activity.
