Farms of the Greater Seattle Area

Known for its incessant amount of rain, the Greater Seattle area is home to a plethora of farms and homesteads to visit, each specializing in unique products. Those interested in sampling some of the local delicacies of the Pacific Northwest may be interested in picking up a Picnic Basket Tour pamphlet from the zine stand in the Big Garage. Visitors can mark locations they have visited with a sticker on the pamphlet. Completed pamphlets can be returned to the drop box near the eastern stands to receive a commemorative “Salmonberry Patch” jacket patch.
==Honeycrisp Orchard==
While sometimes difficult to locate, Honeycrisp Orchard is a farm that is not to be missed, if only for its specialty rare apples. The Honeycrisp bee family has made a tradition of preserving and cultivating rare varieties of apple from across the country. Luce Honeycrisp, the head of the farm, is always open to hear about more heirloom flavors to try out in the orchard, and invites visitors to tell her about any apples she may not yet have heard of. Luce and her 13 sisters are experts on the local ecosystem, having taken care of the farm for several generations.
Honeycrisp Orchard is also known for artisanal flavored honey products, tea, and an unusually high preponderance of rainy-sunny weather, during which rainbows can be seen from a bridge near the stream.
==Arrow Acres Berry Farm And Amusement Park==
Sometimes described as more of a spectacle than a working agricultural establishment, Arrow Acres is a new addition to the Picnic Basket Tour, and was mostly included due to requests from tourgoers to “know where everyone else is taking all those squirt guns, water balloons, whoopie cushions, and implements of pranking.” 
Arrow Acres is managed by a gentleman who refused to identify himself to the committee putting the Picnic Basket Tour pamphlet together, instead only scoffing and saying “You should KNOW who I am.” When informed that the committee would quote him directly, the proprietor made a rude gesture, flipped through a large wallet with said rude gesture, and walked away. 
Arrow Acres is encircled by a large roller coaster track on which visitors ride to tour the premises. Visitors to the amusement park should not be misled by signage indicating “free berry picking” along the way, as the proprietor has no intention of actually letting them keep the berries they pick and will most certainly try to sell visitors their hard work back to them for an exorbitant price in the form of blue jam sold in the gift shop. The berries are collected through specialized baskets built into the roller coaster which are coincidentally just the right size for someone to deposit water balloons, whoopie cushions, and implements of pranking into.
Fans of the Garages were first made aware of the establishment when player Shaquille Torres shared a series of livetweets about his visit to the farm, including one that went viral about the humorous size of the seats on the roller coaster car.
==Morning Sun Acres==
Located in the heart of the Snoqualmie Valley, this scenic farm cultivates primarily vegetables, and is perhaps best known for its wide variety of pickles and pickle flavored products. There is an on site meadery for older guests, a collaboration between Morning Sun Acres and Honeycrisp Orchard boasting flavors such as traditional, dry, semi-sweet, over-sweet, pickle, midnight, and marionberry. For those who cannot make the trip out to the farm, the Emblem Warhorse has a variety of Morning Sun Acres meads on tap.
The farm is owned and operated by one Goodwin Morning, a seven-foot-two woman who bears a remarkable resemblance to known Seattle Garages base-stealing legend and godslayer Goodwin Morin. Morning is a member of the Snoqualmie nation and often works with local food pantries to make fresh produce available to those living in food deserts. 
Visitors to Morning Sun Acres with an interest in jousting or armor may find themselves encountering Emerald Warhorse of the Emblem Warhorse tavern, who coordinates with Morning to deliver handmade tools and equipment made in the Garages’ Smithy to the farm.
During the fall, the farm comes alive with fun activities for guests, such as hayrides, pick your own peck of pickled peppers, and their famous corn maze. Guests report the maze after dark as being "otherworldly" and "strangely bright, on certain paths", some reporting to have been transported somewhere else entirely during their trip through the maze, though it is unclear where or when they may have traveled to.
