The Produce Market at Flower World, Snohomish
The Produce Market, located across the street from (and owned by) Flower World, operates an on-site animal farm. Kids can get close to alpacas, goats, chickens, waterfowl, peacocks and more. Pro tip: You can enter the peacock enclosure and be surrounded by a couple of dozen peacocks — watch for poop — and find a little barn that sometimes houses cute baby animals. Round out the experience by shopping for farm-fresh produce, herbs and eggs. Note: Dogs are not allowed.
Cost: Free
Hours: Open daily, year-round.
