** This thread discusses the Content article: Pick Your Own Organic Produce in Seattle **


Blueberries in Washington are FABULOUS! So are the blackberries, the raspberries, and
the apples. There’s a rumor that they’re
even better if you pick them yourself.
We visited the South 47 Farm
to test that theory.




Picking fresh produce at the South 47 Farm was one of our
best days in Seattle. The farm is very
conveniently located near the city and provides an opportunity to dig your own
potatoes, harvest vegetables, and pick fresh berries and apples. They provide the baskets, the berry cartons,
the shovels and knives and everything else you’ll need to gather all the
produce you’d like. It’s grown
organically and the people that run the farm are incredibly warm. They know how to make sure their customers
have a good experience.






At the South 47 Farm there’s a pole bean maze for small children and a corn maze
for all ages in October. They have art
and nature activities based on different themes, from bugs to flowers to
seeds. There are wagon rides around the
farm, a petting zoo, and a cutting garden to gather your own fresh bouquet. If all of that sounds like too much work,
just visit the farm stand. They have
fresh picked fruits and veggies available anytime.




In the end, according to our research, fresh picked
Honeycrisp apples do indeed taste better than anything we’ve gotten in the
grocery store. And the
raspberries…WOW! Don’t miss the
raspberries! (Pictures in the gallery)
