Planning for our 2026 summer events is officially underway! 🌞


We’re excited to share that vendor applications are now open for the 2026 summer season. Our events bring thousands of locals and visitors to Birch Bay each year and offer a great opportunity to showcase your products, food, or services in a vibrant, beachside setting.


If you’re interested in being a vendor at one (or more!) of our summer events, head to our website to learn more, review requirements, and submit your application. We can’t wait to build another incredible event season!



👉 Visit our website for full details and to apply.


✨February Member of the Month✨

We’re excited to recognize Birch Bay Lawn Care as our February Member of the Month! While their beautiful landscaping work speaks for itself, we especially want to thank Randy and his team for the countless ways they support our organization behind the scenes.


From maintaining the foliage around our signage, helping keep parking areas event-ready, to jumping in on the many odd jobs that come with community events, their willingness to help has made a real difference over the years. That kind of reliable, can-do support is invaluable—and deeply appreciated.


Thank you, Birch Bay Lawn Care, for everything you do to help our community look its best and run smoothly. We’re grateful for your continued partnership! 🌿💙


Member Spotlight of the Week

✨Birch Equipment✨

We’re excited to highlight Birch Equipment as our Birch Bay Chamber Member of the Week!


Birch Equipment is a locally owned sales and rental provider offering construction equipment, industrial tools, and lawn and garden supplies. While independently owned here in the Pacific Northwest, they offer national capabilities and maintain one of the largest and most diverse rental fleets in the industry.


Birch Equipment also deserves special recognition for powering Birch Bay Chamber events for several years, helping keep the beer cold in the beer garden and making sure participants stay warm and comfortable in the warming tent during the Polar Bear Plunge.


Planning your next home or garden renovation? Stop by their Bellingham location for everything you need to get the job done. Birch Equipment offers short- and long-term rentals, new and used equipment sales, and support services including equipment maintenance, parts ordering, and operation training classes.
