BELLINGHAM, Wash. – The Bellingham Shipping Terminal is actually getting a shipment… from a ship.

There hasn’t been a lot of action at the Port of Bellingham waterfront facility in recent years.

Its first regular cargo shipment in over 17 years is nearly 11,000 tons of organic corn and soybeans.

The 590-foot MV Diana Bolten is scheduled to arrive on September 28th.

Demand for organic foods is expected to continue growing and the Port hopes for more contracts to move organic grains and other commodities.
