Guaranteed for cute backdrop photos, great for kids/families and it's such a big farm overall! Such a variety of pumpkins, squash and gourds! They have delicious hot apple cider and pumpkin donuts. Fresh produce and fruits, and honey too with apple cider available for purchase! They have a cornmaze for $7 admission, sunflowers and just a cute vibe all around. It is pretty popular too! The pumpkins are reaosnably priced if you're getting small and medium sized ones (not sure about the big ones). There were a lot of ppl with wagons purchasing big pumpkins so expect a line if you're visiting this month!

This co-op in Skagit is filled with healthy alternatives, fresh produce, and even a juice/coffee/snack bar serving up some delicious bites. I found a number of local products and beers to buy from the grocery side, and a mushroom sandwich. I cannot properly describe the deliciousness of this sandwich - you just had to be there. I also loved that the co-op's second story is filled with the most unique home and gift items you'll find. Everything is sustainable first, and they even have a decent book selection. Couldn't imagine a better place to spend my Saturday, just wish I lived closer so I could visit every weekend.

It's a neat grocery store with fresh build-your-own sandwich options, bakery treats, gifts and trinkets, wines, and a lot more. We ordered sandwiches from the kiosk where it prints a ticket to bring to the counter. You can purchase other items with your sandwich, too. We had ordered two pineapple conchas from the dessert case for a post-lunch dessert. The veggies on the sandwich were so fresh it hit the spot for a light midafternoon meal. There is an upstairs seating area, it's really quiet and private. After we ate our lunch, we looked at some trinkets in the gift shop that's upstairs too. It truly has it all!

I've been a long time customer of St. John's Creamery starting back in 2012 - present and will…read morecontinue to be. History: I stopped drinking milk (cow's) 20yrs ago, it was only after I researched goat's milk and talked with St. John's Creamery, I decided to give it a try. I've been an athlete most of my life and have studied cutting-edge sports nutrition most of my athletic career but was uninformed regarding the benefits of raw goats milk. I spent over $500 on various high-end brands of probiotics and saw no noticeable benefit. I decided to look for something else and that is when I came across a small article mentioning the benefits of goat's milk. After additional in depth research, I began searching for a local goat's milk dairy. I contacted St. John's Creamery; the owner, Marcia St. John, confirmed the information I had researched and invited me to visit the dairy. Seattle Area Dairy History: The Seattle area has lost track of its roots and most city dwellers and surrounding communities are completely unaware that north and east of Seattle, there were 100's of dairy farms. Dairy farms are just that "farms" and as such you will encounter mud, dirt, cattle, goats, farming equipment, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese and devoted tireless hard-working farmers, like St. John Creamery. Top Five Priorities: St. John's Creamery and other dairy farmers' primary focus and 24x7 commitment to quality products is: #1 Consumer Safety #2 Animal Health & Safety, #3 Environment, #4 commitment to government regulations adherence and #5 employees and other business aspects. My Experience: I noticed significant positive benefits to drinking raw goat's milk. I now drink one or two glasses of goats milk a day (AM/PM), my digestion has completely normalized (miracle). Goat's milk is not sweet, like cow's milk - I believe this may be because goat's milk is more alkaline. I adapted to the taste of goats milk very quickly, given all of the benefits I've observed personally it is the best decision I ever made. Raw Goats Milk Health Benefits: https://healthyfocus.org/benefits-goat-milk/ I highly recommend goat's milk and give St. John's Creamery my highest recommendation.

Also, you pay on the honor system, so bring cash with plenty of $1.00's, or you can pay with Venmo. The owner is super busy harvesting. Don't miss this gem on your way to Christensen's Nursery or the Miniature Donkey Farm.

The crowd comes with the territory. What really stood out was how well-organized everything was. Staff were actively directing traffic for parking and foot traffic which made the arrival process surprisingly smooth given the turnout. It's clear the organizers put thought into the logistics. The flower variety was truly awesome! Sooo many stunning colors and blooms that you just don't see every day. If you're a photography lover then this place is a dream. Every corner was practically begging to be photographed. They did have concessions on-site, which was convenient but my one suggestion would be to bring in a couple of food carts or local vendors to mix things up. The options were pretty basic. Think hotdogs and the usual staples. A little more variety in the food department would really elevate the whole experience. Minor food note aside, it was a fantastic visit and a perfect way to spend a spring day.
