Fall weather means hot chocolate, pumpkins, and cozy blankets. It's also a great time to go outside and see the leaves changing color and check out all of the autumn events hosted by farms near Redmond. Here are some options for fun fall activities near our Redmond apartments.

Remlinger Farms

The Fall Harvest Pumpkin Festival at Remlinger Farms started on September 26 and lasts through the end of the season. This farm earned the title best pumpkin patch in Washington, according to Good Housekeeping. The magazine lauds the yearly festival, writing, "In addition to their U-Pick pumpkin fields, Remlinger Farms also has live entertainment, tractor-drawn hayrides, and freshly made donuts." Remlinger Farms also boasts its very own restaurant. Satisfy your appetite with classics like the Remlinger Reuben or Farm Burger or try seasonal favorites, like The Gobbler turkey sandwich or mini pumpkin and apple pies. Just make sure to wear a face-covering while you enjoy everything that the farm has to offer.

Baxter Barn

Baxter Barn prides itself on its rich history. The farm dates back 136 years. Its pumpkin tours, which educate the public about sustainable farming practices, farm animals, and local wildlife, are state-famous. After the tour, head to the pumpkin patch where you can choose from small, medium, and large pumpkins. Also, be sure to be on the lookout for freebies -- Baxter Barn is giving away grain-free feed and healthy treats for pets and animals. Reservations are required for pumpkin tours, and tours have limited capacity in adherence to safety guidelines.

Jubilee Farm

Jubilee Farms invites you to visit their pick-your-own pumpkin patch and to make it a tradition year after year. Every October, Jubilee kicks off its Harvest Festival where you can find hayrides entirely free of charge, pony rides, hot apple cider, squash sampling, cooking demonstrations, live music, and local vendors selling fresh veggies, soaps, salves, spices, jam, candles and so much more.
