The start of berry picking season is like our northwest announcement that summer is finally here!
Berry picking is a sweet activity for families of all ages and there are many local options and varieties when it comes to u-pick berry farms in the area. There is only one U-Pick farm on the Eastside, so we included places in nearby Carnation, Duvall, Monroe, and Snohomish to make for a fun family day at the farm! Here's a round-up of some favorite places to pick-your-own, and tips for your outing.
Thank you to Remlinger Farms for Sponsoring this year's berry picking guide!
