Businesses that sustained losses during December 2025’s historic flooding can apply for disaster relief funds through local business organizations. Each organization is administering its own grant process – be sure to note specific application deadlines. Check out the details below for the communities of Mount Vernon, Burlington/Edison, Sedro-Wooley/Upriver, and relief funds specifically for agricultural producers throughout Skagit County.
