They've been here for a long time, and I've been using them for a long time. In their pet supply section alone, they have all kinds of items and food for birds both indoors and outdoors, satisfying my African Grey and his little conure friend as well as all the juncos and chickadees in my backyard. I love walking through the store because of the great supply of all kinds of things: from farm implements, lawn care items, tools, gloves, hats, cages, more. Also found some fun toys and treats for our cat. There is a huge selection of cat and dog food, as well as stuff for less common pets such as guinea pigs, chickens and rabbits. (Were the Wallaby treats actually for kangaroos?) Lots of wonderful stuff for us humans too, especially for the holidays. Saw some wonderful silvery reindeer to go in yards, and bought some wonderful hanging tropical chimes for our house. Overall this place is a real treat.

It's a fun and fantastic opportunity to experience the richness and diversity of our city's art community. There's no price for admission, and some of the galleries even offer nibbles, wine, and/or beer! The best part, though, is meeting the artists who come to show off their work in person. You can go to their website to download a map of each month's participating locations, or stop at the Downtown Bellingham office on Commercial St. for a printed copy. This is a serious must-do for anyone wanting to experience the Bham scene!

We happened upon this one-day event while camping nearby. It was a warm and sunny Saturday so the…read moreperfect day for a festival. Confession: this was my first Bigfoot Festival and, as a closet fan of everything sasquatch, I was sorta excited about it! It turns out the festival was a fundraiser for some improvements to a nearby park, more than an informational or even entertainment-oriented gathering about that mysterious, tall, hairy beast that is said to roam the nearby forests. There were a ton of really cute art booths, many featuring bigfoot-related items, as well as a coloring contest for the kids and a musical stage (although we were there for an hour and never heard a note of live music). There were a few food booths, but the lines were long so we didn't partake. We kept wandering around hoping we'd find a beer garden to help us cool off but, sadly, there wasn't a beer in sight. This might have been the first year for the festival, so maybe they'll make some improvements to make it more fun the next time around. I love a good art fair, but having more squatch-related info/entertainment, some music, and music would have made it worth returning another time.

Their main business is cattle auctions, which sometimes includes stuff like eggs, chickens, etc. There's a small restaurant attached to it that feeds auction goers. I've never been to auction but have watched it. This review is based strictly on the restaurant, food portion of this business. The food is generally good. Most of the wait staff are extremely friendly and very happy to be there, with one exception. It's a small local business so it truly has a local feel. Restaurant is open Monday and Wednesday and some Saturdays i think but never been here Saturday. For breakfast I normally have biscuit n gravy and some eggs. Gravy seems straight from a can. For lunch normally have grilled cheese or their burger. The burger is very juicy and flavorful, grilled cheese is very good and less messy. On their menu nothing really truly stands out as being amazing. Nor is there anything I find horrible. I like their burgers, grilled cheese is good. Some things, like corn dogs, are microwaved. They have fresh homemade soups and pies. Sometimes delicious apple, pumpkin, strawberry cream, lemon meringue, it varies. Soups very as well. As seen in picture, everything is clean yet dated, feeling a bit homey and stuck in a different era. I went to someplace in rural south Dakota that this reminds me of, a place where the locals hang out, neighbors greet each other, and long time friends gather. It's not for everyone, most people are better served by going into Bellingham or nearby Everson yet I find this a very solid place. It's either this place or The Dutch Treat in Lynden as my default go to place when in the area.
