The Skagit Valley Tulip Festival kicks off Sunday and is
sure to draw flower lovers from all over the Northwest.
“Plan that trip ahead and plan an alternate route other than
the downtown Mount Vernon exit if you don’t want to be stuck
in traffic,” suggested State Trooper Keith Leary.
He said there are several ways to get to the tulip fields
and it’s beautiful countryside to drive through.
“You can actually pass through Mount Vernon and take Highway
20 and get off on several different streets to get to the
tulip fields.”
Leary recommended doing a quick Google maps search or check
out the Tulip Festival website for alternative ways
to reach the tulip fields.
