It's right off the main road, easy to find, plenty of parking and very clean port a potty on site. The person working the stand was super helpful and informative. On the day of our visit they had U pick green beans and pickling cucumbers. My friend spent so much money on pickling cucumbers (I guess they are all water and very heavy), but I had a nice time picking enough green beans for the next nights dinner for a reasonable price. They also had already picked corn that you could take home for about 75 cents each. Both tasted delicious when cooked up the following day, my friend is making pickles so that will take some time. Next up is squash, closer to the end of October, I'm tempted to return to pick some spaghetti squash, they will also have acorn and pumpkins. Currently they have 4 sunflower mazes, we were in a bit of a hurry so we only did one, but it was a really nice photo opp and a good excuse to add in some more steps. On the day we visited there was a sale for 5$, but the price is normally 10$ for all 4, very reasonable. The maze we choose, since we didn't go to the website like we were encouraged to do, was just an out and back, but the other 3 might be more maze like. This was my first time in a sunflower field and very fun on a warm, sunny day. I did not realize there would be so many bees, but they left us alone. I hope to make it back here some day soon.

The process is that you get a box that they provide, go toward the field where another person will assign where you can pick and then you just start picking. Super easy. Once you finish, you bring it back, they weigh your strawberries and you pay. Another bonus is that they accept credit cards! I had a pretty fun time here. The strawberries are sweet and fresh and it was super yummy. I definitely would recommend coming here.

Local Roots Farm Store is a fruit and veggie store in Duvall run by the owners of Local Roots Farm…read more It is located in Valley Center, just off Main Street NE, the main road in town. The store stocks produce grown by Local Roots, but also stocks produce from other regional growers, as well as products like cheeses and fresh pasta from local producers. It is also an unexpectedly good gourmet specialty food shop given its rural location. This includes wines and specialty goods like tinned fish and sauces. They stock upscale goods to supplement your grocery trip down the road at Safeway. Particularly imported Italian items, which an Italophile would love. If you live near Duvall and are looking for local produce and specialty food items, it is a good place to look if you do not feel like driving to Bellevue or Redmond for the same goods.

You can totally take your time the ladies there made me and my friend comfortable shopping and circling the same section multiple times. If you pass by Duvall, you must go check it out. Not right on the Main Street. It's at the complex after the Thai Duvall restaurant. Will definitely shop there again!

Just a heads up, the fields get very sunny all day long, so sun protection is a must. The strawberries are fresh and flavorful. We learned the perfect picking trick here: choose fully bright red berries. Avoid the overripe purple ones, as the bright red ones taste the sweetest and have the best texture. Fun activity for friends and families, totally worth the trip.

A PNW Treasure for Families!…read more If you're looking for the perfect family day trip in the Snoqualmie Valley, Remlinger Farms is an absolute must. We had such an incredible time here, and it's easily become one of our favorite local spots. What makes this place special is that it's so much more than just a farm--it's a full-blown experience. Here's why we loved it: The Fun Park: The rides are perfect for younger kids! From the classic kiddie coaster to the charming train ride that loops around the property, there's plenty to keep them entertained for hours. The Animals: The petting zoo was a huge hit. The animals are well-cared for, and it's such a sweet, hands-on way for kids to connect with nature. The Food & Market: You cannot leave without visiting the market. Their famous pies (especially the marionberry!) are legendary for a reason. We also loved the café for a quick, fresh lunch. The Atmosphere: Even when it's busy, the farm has a wonderful, relaxed energy. It's clean, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the scenery in Carnation is just stunning. Whether you're going for the summer berries, the fall pumpkin patch, or just a weekend outing, Remlinger Farms delivers every time. It's a nostalgic, wholesome, and genuinely fun place to make memories. We'll definitely be back!

Definitely more low-key than some of the other bigger operations but so perfect for our family. There were goats, they were pumpkins, and there was a little mini pumpkin maze, which was just there . The vibe was exactly what we needed. We went on a rainy day, but managed to find a two hour window with a little bit of sunshine. Couldn't have been better! They've got all different types of pumpkins that you can either pick yourself or just choose off the shelves. There was also a craft fair with holiday crafts. Oh! And a really nice restroom!! Lots of parking too. My only suggestion might be to have a few places to sit down along the long path to the corn maze. I'm recovering from a back injury and that might've been a nice addition. Highly recommend!

It's early in the season and the pumpkins were fresh on the vine to cut (they provide shears) and all looked in perfect condition. They also have a large variety of carts, wagons and wheelbarrows to borrow and pull into the fields. Prices are vague and not clearly listed; it also didn't help that the staff was confused what to charge me for a white ghost pumpkin I picked from the field. The main barnyard area has a nice aesthetic with a photo op area and tractor kids can sit on. There's also a small goat area too, because you can't go wrong with animals. Other attractions included a corn maze that was a bit further, that we decided to skip. There are small children's areas within the barn including a mini tricycle track, corn pit, hay maze, but they honestly weren't memorable. Overall it's a smaller local pumpkin patch farm for a basic visit, but there's definitely potential to grow.

There's lots of parking after you drive down the gravel road, and we were directed to a spot by attendants. They were very nice and helped us return our cart at the end. I immediately loved the adorable decorations, the colorful wheelbarrows, the pumpkin displays, and all the family activities. They had campfire sites sprinkled throughout the central area where you could buy smores supplies and make a smore after pumpkin hunting. They had a few snacks and a hot and cold cider available. Tickets to the corn maze were available at the purchase desk, and there were also lots of great photo stands around in case you felt like being a pumpkin-head. It was very well thought out as far as it being a one-stop family autumn fun festival. They had two large patches with multiple varieties of pumpkin types with varying ranges in size, color, and shape. As is customary for me, I found the wartiest, ugliest one for myself, and the husband of mine found the biggest and most pristine. If you didn't want to cut your own, they have many displays you can sample from. Prices were displayed based on relative size, which I like way more than the trouble of weighing. Overall, it was a fun holiday experience.
