Spring means blooming flowers, Earth Day, and more time outside. The following local spots offer fun things to do during the spring. They are only a short drive from our apartments in Redmond, WA.

A Bonsai Practice

A Bonsai Practice is an art workshop and community located at Eastside Pottery. Bonsai are small plants that require special potting and pruning. The studio offers bonsai classes for both beginners and experienced artists. In the introductory course, you'll handcraft a bonsai pot from clay, then pot a pre-bonsai tree. Add a pop of greenery to your windowsill, desk, or table.

Cave B Estate Winery

Cave B Estate Winery's central location is in Quincy, but it has a Woodinville Tasting Room in Redmond. Cave B is unique because all of its wine is from the nearby Famiglia Vineyards. The Tasting Room offers wine tastings for small groups, with indoor and patio seating. The wine-tasting menu features whites, reds, or a mix of both. The Woodinville Tasting Room welcomes walk-ins but recommends making reservations.

The Red Barn Farm

The Red Barn Farm prides itself on using one hundred percent organic and sustainable farming practices. It has an heirloom apple orchard, a dairy farm, organic produce, and an expansive flower selection. The Red Barn's scenery makes it a popular spot for weddings, photo shoots, and small events throughout the year. The farm has different animals you can feed for $5. Two springtime happenings are an egg hunt and tulip patch visits.
