Business Spotlights in Woodland, WA

WEEKENDER SPOTLIGHT

Local Places. Local People.

WORTH THE MEGAPHONE

A closer look at the businesses, organizations, and people woven into every day Woodland.

WEEKENDER FEATURE

Forward Movement Construction is a locally rooted company in Woodland, WA that does more than build in the community.. they show up for it. Family-focused and locally invested, they’re a familiar supporter of Woodland events, teams, and organizations, with a reputation for putting time and resources back into the town they call home.

Forward Movement Construction will fix your fence, repair your room, clean your gutters, build a deck… and take on pretty much any project around the property. This guy even does custom woodworking that’s simply beautiful. He’s a self-proclaimed jack of most trades and honestly… we’re pretty sure that’s an understatement 🤣

Yet, the bigger picture is community: building relationships, supporting local families, and being the kind of business that keeps showing up long after the job is done.

That kind of local commitment is exactly what Weekender likes to spotlight.

The Ones Who Keep Showing Up

Woodland is full of businesses, organizations, and people who make this town better simply by being part of it.
They sponsor the team. Donate the raffle prize. Help with the fundraiser. Open the doors early, stay late, support the school, answer the call, and somehow keep finding ways to put something back into the community around them.
Some are brand new. Some have been here forever. Some are loud about what they do, and some just quietly keep doing the work.

These are the people and places helping shape Woodland from the inside out. And we think that’s worth celebrating.

WOODLAND PTSA

Supporting Woodland students, schools, and families through events, fundraising, advocacy, connection and the kind of community support that keeps showing up. Give a follow since they’re always up to something!

Growing Montessori Outdoor Schoool

Nature-based learning, local families, and a whole lot of heart. Nestled in the hills of Woodland gives students ages 3-6 a place to learn, explore, and grow outside the traditional classroom

A WELL DESERVED SPOTLIGHT

Downtown
Woodland
Revitalization

Downtown Woodland Revitalization is one of those groups quietly helping keep Woodland connected, welcoming, and worth showing up for. From community events and downtown improvements to supporting local businesses and operating the Woodland Welcome Center, their work touches a lot of the things that make this town feel alive.

They’re behind familiar Woodland traditions like Movies in the Park, help create opportunities for local vendors and businesses, and keep finding ways to make downtown a stronger place for both locals and visitors.

They do a lot for Woodland and we think they deserve a little spotlight ⭐

Farm Fresh Hits Different in Woodland

Woodland Turns Purple Every Spring

Every spring, Hulda Klager Lilac Gardens becomes one of Woodland’s biggest draws for Lilac Days

Lilac Days 2027 • April 17–May 9
Open daily from 10 AM–4 PM

Visitors can wander the historic gardens, tour the Klager farmhouse, explore the museum, and shop the annual lilac plant sale.

A Directory That Actually Means Woodland

The gardens preserve the work and story of Woodland’s own Hulda Klager, who became known for developing new lilac varieties, and thousands of visitors now come through the historic site each year.

Lilac Days may be the star of spring around here, but it’s a pretty great excuse to see what else is blooming, growing, and happening around Woodland too.
