Our annual Christmas tree hunt goes not farther than Schilter Family Farm…read more The Thanksgiving week end usually slams this tree farm. However, we always find a quality Noble fir if even we have to hunt a bit. This year was REALLY unusual. The Monday after T Day we went with the idea we'd have to spend time searching. The most helpful young man pointed us to a new field of Nobles. And there, no more than 10 feet in from the path was IT (visions of Clark Griswold!). There were countless more even after that Turkey Day rush. The same man came by in his tractor and asked if he could cut it down for us. He had a chain saw. I had a hand saw. No brainer!! The service and selection are first class. Topping this off is the gift shop, where you pay, has all sorts of Christmas related things, including fresh wreaths (which we bought)

Definitely deserving of a spot in the top 10 pumpkin patches in Washington!…read more I've been going to pumpkin patches almost yearly since I was 4 so I consider myself somewhat of an expert. Here's my highs and lows and good enoughs: 5 Stars to: -Plenty of Photo setup spots -Apple cider slush sundae -FRESH & HOT Roasted Corn -Many adult AND kid friendly activities -pumpkin assortment 1 Star for: -No back up generator (Power went out while at the farm and the poor animals were huddled up closer than the people were) -flavorless burgers 2.5 stars (aka good enough) for: -cold apple cider donuts -friendly but antisocial staff -gift shop (Felt more like a very small, 'small business' fair) I think the ticket price was a decent value for what was available!

This was a great cidery after we were coming back from the coast on a nice but somber occasion. We…read morewanted to relax and get some cider as we were on our way home! Snowbird Farm & Cidery definitely fit the bill nicely and really cheered Steve and me up! Not only was the cider good but the atmosphere and the farm setting is simply great! There are all kinds of barnyard animals when we got here and were enjoying our cider. There were a lot of chickens roaming around and were begging for bread crumbs and what not. Some of the roosters here were very, very beautiful! None of the roosters were mean and chased or pecked at you like ones we had at my parent's ranch. They were all gentle and very chill. There were also ducks roaming around. Many of them were dark feathered and were really pretty! We also saw some goats... babies and adults alike and they were adorable. Apparently there are ponies here too going off of the pictures but we didn't see them. Maybe they were in a different spot than where we were. There was a lot going on!! No t only was there a lot of chickens and ducks to distract and amuse us there was a kind of vendor event going on here the day we went so that also got our attention as we looked at all of the vendor's merchandise. The cider we had a difficult time in choosing what we wanted. So we got the larger flight taster tray option and was glad that we did that so we could get a range of most of their ciders. The ciders we had was Blackberry Basil, Hoppy Opus, Strawberry Rhubarb, Elderberry Honey, Lavender Haze and Peach. Probably our favorites from this flight was the Blackberry Basil and the Hoppy Opus but all of them were enjoyable! I can definitely see myself coming here often when ever we are in the area... make it a watering hole. I do have to say I will probably prefer the warmer months for future visits so you can see all of the barnyard animals out and about on the farm!

A number of the out-buildings have been converted to various functional buildings, from sauna to student housing. The whole place has an amazing energy to it, and during my time there for a weekend class I got to tour almost all of it. I spent a great weekend attending a workshop, where I got to take classes, work in their food forest, take home transplants, and wander the forest surrounding the homestead. Great people, great site, if you ever have the chance to take a workshop there I can't recommend it enough!

I came with an almost 9 year old today (Monday) for the sunflower festival. Our tickets were for…read more10:30 and there was practically nobody else there (more at lunch time). Follow directions from whatever maps app. Parking is in the field next to the farm produce stand. Not sure when produce stand is open but it looked more lively by the time we left around 11:30. I purchased tickets online and sort of wandered into the store because it was unclear where to redeem tickets. We checked out the wall ball game and jumped on the jump pad and made big bubbles. Spun the chairs but didn't actually get in them, checked out the funny little singing tractor and sat on some bulls that had no lasso. We then wandered over to where there was a sign for sunflower field and waited for the tractor. We would've gotten a snack but settled on some waters from the store. ($2 each). Each admission comes with 1 sunflower bloom, you can get more but we weren't really interested. It was fun at the sunflower field to admire the flowers and go around the photo op spots. We both enjoyed trying to find the perfect flower. Good advice from the people at the stand to wait to pick a flower until you're waiting for the tractor - sunflowers droop pretty quick (mine perked up at home). They package it up for taking home nicely at the stand. I think this would be a good trip for an exuberant 4-6 year old and the full train of women coming out to the fields as we were leaving seemed to indicate it's a joyful ladies day trip. If you want flower pics, you can't lose here. 4 stars because it was worth doing but nothing special and I was hoping some of the games were geared towards slightly older kids.
