About this site

Hi, I’m Nathan Whalen and I launched PSagrarian in September 2025 to provide Puget Sound agriculture news and information while highlighting the region’s rural character.

With more than 8,000 farms in operation providing more than $1 billion to Washington’s economy, PSagrarian provides a bridge between the agriculture community and the news and information they need to take steps toward success.

I have the research skills and the ability to find and interview experts to document the news pertinent to Puget Sound’s agriculture community. I have more than 25 years of journalism experience writing for newspapers, magazines and nonprofit organizations in western Washington. 

Feel free to reach out by contacting me at editor@psagrarian.com.
