You should add Fairbank Farm to your list. We’ve been going there the past 4 years, they are a small family run farm. They are open 10am-5pm weekends in October. Admission is $2.50/person and includes a cup of food to feed the chickens/ducks/geese. They have a small petting zoo and great prices on pumpkins! It’s an Edmonds address but very close to Lynnwood/Mukilteo. Their website is http://www.fairbankfarm.com.
Thanks Brittainy – just added it!
We love Sholz ,because everything but your purchases of food and pumkins is free and it is a lot less crowded than the bigger ones down the street!
I too like Lisa like Sholz Farm in Puyallup. Farm animals and fun displays :)
I was just writing about the Harvest Fests! Must be that autumn air :)
There is another one on the Key Peninsula, also on the 1st.

Was just looking through Baringer Farms’ FB page cuz they were my favorite…. Says the Everett location is not open this year for pumpkins :( & Arlington was only open during the summer for berries. Sad. I hope they’ll reopen next year.
Oh bummer, we liked that place, too – thanks for the update, Danielle!
Hi Danielle….Their Facebook page for harvest/pumpkin patch has been updated to Biringer’s Black Crow Pumpkins & Corn Maze. It is 2 miles from the Arlington berry farm. Hope that helps.
