Remlinger Farms
Pumpkin patch · Washington
East of Seattle in the Snoqualmie Valley, Remlinger Farms turns its u-pick fields over to a Fall Harvest Pumpkin Festival each autumn. A farm market, a small brewery and cafe, and a kids' fun park with rides run alongside the pumpkin patch, so plan for a full day here rather than a quick stop.
