About me

📚✏️ 🚌Here we are, fast-approaching back-to-school routines as we transition into a new season🍂 As schedules change and cooler weather approaches, it's a great time to review your insurance coverage and make sure it still fits your needs. Teresa Garten State Farm in Ferndale, WA is here to help with Auto, Home, Renters, Life, RV, and Boat Insurance options. Whether you're settling into a new school-year routine, preparing for fall weather, or simply checking in on your current policies, our team is here to answer your questions and help you explore coverage that works for you... Also, keep an eye out for the crosswalks and kiddos before and after school! 🚌✏️📚

Whatcom County is home for me—I was born in Bellingham and grew up right here, and am honored to be able to help my neighbors protect what and who they love. I became a State Farm agent in 2011 because I believe the right coverage makes a real difference at claim-time, and it’s my goal every day to serve my community with plans that fit their needs. I work with people from Ferndale, Blaine, Birch Bay, Lynden, Custer and the greater Bellingham area!

I’ve been part of the State Farm family for over 25 years! I got my start supporting another agent as a team member, which gave me a strong foundation in open communication and customer service. I also spent five years as an agency field professional, working with agency owners' training and development. I bring all that experience to the office to benefit my customers every day. They know they can count on me to be there for them and to truly care about their lives. My amazing team of friendly insurance professionals is always available to answer questions and offer support, and we take pride in remarkable customer service always.

I’m passionate about supporting my neighbors and my community however I can. I am a proud member of Ferndale Kiwanis and the Ferndale Chamber of Commerce. We give back to the Ferndale Food Bank, Ferndale Youth Sports and the Ferndale Schools Foundation. We've also never missed the Boys and Girls Club annual breakfast! Outside the office, you can usually find me running—I’ve done three marathons, and am usually training for something! I also love spending time with my husband and daughter playing games enjoying the great outdoors!

From auto insurance, home insurance, property insurance and life insurance to business insurance, health insurance and financial services, we are here to help. My office is always a friendly, welcoming place (for humans and pets!), whether you’ve worked with us for years or are just looking for some fresh coffee and a free quote! Give me a call or stop by today.

Our mission

Our mission here at Portal Way State Farm is to help make sure our customers have the right auto, home and life insurance coverage in place at the right time so there are no surprises or disappointments if you should have a claim. This is why we offer annual reviews to all of our customers, it's a time to review important changes in the industry, look at what they DO have, what they DON'T have and what this means in the event of a claim. We help educate them on their options to help them prepare for the unexpected things that can happen in life!
