Whether you’re hunting for something sweet or savory, local farms produce a great bounty. This local produce stand brings the farm into town and provides one-stop shopping for your fall baking needs. 
Inside tip: The stand brings in fresh produce from local farms through the end of October. Then, they remain open for two more weeks to liquidate their fruit and vegetables at heavily discounted prices. Whatever remains is donated to an Everett foodbank to help local families experiencing food insecurity.
