- For lunch, head to Nourish Sequim for a farm-to-table meal. The organic kitchen is dedicated to serving gluten-free fare that doesn’t skimp on flavor or creativity. Stroll the beautiful grounds as well! After lunch, head out to Port Townsend to tour the Victorian architecture, stroll at Fort Worden State Park, and shop in the downtown area.
