She got to hold a bunny and baby bunnies too, a chicken, a small tortoise, kitty cats and play with a friendly Dog named Rex who was a very well-behaved greeter to all who came to visit the farm that day. There were ducks bathing and splashing which brought giggles from the littles. Chloe got to brush a very friendly Donkey, a small horse and feed the goats and sheep. We spent a little over two hours and very much enjoyed ourselves. From my personal experience I noticed one very important rule to follow for anyone visiting the farm... please allow the people who are working the farm to pick up and hand you the animals you'd like to hold. Some are tamer than others and some are new to the farm. Please watch your children and help them follow just a few easy rules. It's very hard for most children to not chase and scare them or pick them up without help. When following the basic rules you will be sure to have a fantastic time. We were treated very kindly and rarely had to wait more than a minute or two for our turn to snuggle with a furry or feathered friend.

The goats are so silly and fun to watch and feed. The ducks, turkeys, chickens walk around freely and there are two nice dogs. The sheep were resting in the pasture and the cow was hiding out today. There are lots of places where you can interact with the animals or just sit under an umbrella and be entertained by them. It was easy to make a reservation on line, find the farm, parking and the family was welcoming. We will return.

Some alpacas, a few donkeys, sheep and a cow- enjoy a short little tour that ends with a tiny little gift shop. I wish the gift shop was better because they sold some stuff that had nothing to do with the vibe, but obviously the kids always want toys. There were some alpaca stuffy's that I ended up getting my daughters. There's room for improvement there. Especially if they were to link up with other local vendors because people traveling to orcas Island are always looking to support small business. The guy, farmer, is super funny and cool. I definitely recommend giving him a call and letting him know that you're going to stop by. Orcas Moon Alpacas Farm 329 Dolphin Bay Road Eastsound, WA 98245 (360) 376-2707

Anyhow, a gazillion years ago, when I lived in Boston, I SO wanted to visit a cranberry bog. I am fascinated by how these ruby-colored berries are grown, I am fascinated by the bogs, and I love the whole seasonal nature of the fruit (i.e., usually cooking and consuming them starting in the fall, at the onset of the autumnal and winter holidays, - typically a celebratory, happy time. For me, at least, these fruits have a strong association with the holiday season, with family and family gatherings, and traditional holiday foods). I never got to a bog in New England, and I figured I missed my chance to ever visit one. That is, until I moved to Vancouver and learned there were cranberry bogs in BC. And then I saw advertised a cranberry festival in Langley, and a self-guided tour of a real cranberry bog there. And even better: you could add on to your admission ticket a "plunge" into the bog! And my kid was as jazzed as I was to go, to learn about the growing and harvesting of cranberries and to take the plunge! It wasn't cheap but, hey, this was something on my bucket list for decades, and there was no way I wasn't going! It was worth every penny. My kid and I had SO much fun, and we also learned a lot about cranberry farming. The Bog-Riverside farm was great: easy to find (super close to historic Fort Langley and the downtown Langley area), free parking, the cutest retail store selling all sorts of gourmet cranberry treats (jars of sauces and chutneys and jams, donuts and tarts and pastries with cranberries, and BOG merchandise like t-shirts and hats, and more. You can also pick up lots of free cranberry recipe cards and magazines showcasing local farms and attractions. Oh, and they also have great coffees here too!), and all the folks working here were super friendly and nice. The self-guided tour was extremely educational, and also quite well organized, with easy-to-follow maps to the farm given to you at check-in, and various posts along the way with QR codes, linking you to audio files describing what you are seeing IRL. (The tour itself is not that long, or far in distance. My kid and I did it within an hour. You could spend longer if you want, but it's do-able within 30 minutes, too. Be sure to wear shoes that you don't mind getting muddy FYI!). Part of the tour is inside a building with an old, wooden sorting machine and various placards outlining the harvesting process, terminology, etc. But the rest of the tour is outside, so be sure to dress for the weather! Our favorite part was the plunge. What an experience! From the donning of the waders to the actual wading into the bog to the taking of goofy photos.... the whole experience was SO fun! I found cranberries in my shirt later that night hahahaha! Bonus! My kid and I laughed so much. As she would say: wholesome fun. This tour and plunge is only available on certain days and at certain times during the Canadian Thanksgiving season, so if you are interested in doing this, be sure to get tickets when they go on sale (I think a month earlier). But I believe they have tours available by appointment year-round; check on thier website for more info. Watching the actual workers in the bog, pulling on the boom, seeing the round bog rotating as the cranberries rise and are harvested, is a pretty amazing site, and it will give you a new appreciation for this little ruby red berry.

I picked up a really nice pullover sweater that felt so luxurious that I didn't want to take it off, so I bought it and left it on. The Mrs picked up some nice alpaca wool socks and some notecards. Others in our group bought some skeins of wool for knitting and an interesting item I never heard of before. It was a bar of soap that is embedded in some form of a wool cocoon. You just use it in the shower as a combination soap a d washcloth. The grounds are beautiful, well maintained and clean. The staff is very helpful and pleasant to deal with.

This gem of a family-run farm exceeded every expectation and left us not wanting to leave. One of the unexpected highlights was Farmer Andrew's Tulip Talk -- I honestly don't know why this isn't front and center in every piece of marketing, because it was absolutely wonderful. Andrew is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and his talk gave our visit so much more depth and meaning. Don't skip it! The u-pick experience was pure joy. We each got to hand-select 10 stems straight from the fields, wandering through row after row of stunning colors and varieties. The farm is beautifully laid out with so many gorgeous spots to sit, slow down, and just soak in the views of the tulips against the backdrop of the Cascades. We never felt rushed -- it truly felt like they wanted you to linger and enjoy every moment. The mini Highland cows are absolutely adorable and a total delight, especially for kids. The food vendors on site were a lovely bonus -- great options for both a meal and a snack, so you can easily make a full half-day of it. What also stood out was how relaxed the atmosphere felt. It wasn't overly crowded, and the whole vibe was welcoming and unhurried. You can tell this family pours real heart into everything they do. Tulip Valley Farms is the kind of place that reminds you to slow down and appreciate something beautiful. We'll be back every spring!
