Where to Go: Attached you will find directions to the Beet farm.
(1) Set your GPS for "Dairyland" in Snohomish. This will get you to the turnoff from "Old Snohomish-Monroe Road" onto Treosti Road.
(2) Follow the signs back to the beet field. The field is inside of Harnden's Tree Nursery. We will harvest beets, twist off the leaves, and fill sack in the field.
